Why LeBron James Is Still Motivated in Year 19
Follow Us
It is safe to say that LeBron James is a one-of-a-kind superstar. There have hardly been any players in NBA history who have displayed back-to-back MVP caliber performances despite being in the nineteenth year of their career. Furthermore, the Akron Hammer is showing no signs of slowing down, both physically and mentally.
LeBron looks as sharp as ever on the court and he is arguably the best player in the league right now. He is third in the league in scoring and without him, the Los Angeles Lakers would be a lottery team. Despite that, LeBron looks as motivated as ever. He has also stated that it is his dream to play with his son one day.

“It’s just in me,” says LeBron James

Well, at that level. So sh*t, why not like, I’m trying to squeeze as much juice as this motherf***ing orange as I can”
