He said, “He takes care of his body pretty well so nothing is surprising for us. The things he’s able to do at this age is still unbelievable. Feels like every game he’s breaking another record.

“I’m glad I’m his teammate and get to witness it first hand. He’s going to continue to break more records and continue to get better. He’s drinking from the fountain of youth.

“The things he’s able to do on the floor still, his head still touching the rim, still taking the big shots, still playing physical. I’m pretty sure we’ll be seeing another record being broke on Thursday.”

But LeBron hasn’t been doing it all alone. He has had immense support from Davis too. Despite his limited playoff experience, he has lived up to the expectations that were laid out for him and is proving he’s one of the best players in the league.

In the last two games, veteran Rajon Rondo has also stepped up and has played a vital role for the Lakers.
