LeBron James has been in the league for 17 years and he has built an amazing legacy for himself. James has now won the NBA title for the 4th time in his career; this is his first with the Lakers.

The Lakers’ days of being miserable were over when the King arrived in LA. Although James will be 36-years-old soon, he still has a lot left in the tank. Ever since a young age, James has been a phenomenal player and leader for his teams.

Former NBA player Gilbert Arenas recently posted about how much effort LeBron puts into winning games.

Arenas congratulated LBJ on winning his 4th ring and wished him luck for his future. Moreover, Arenas took a trip down the memory lane and shared how LBJ used to prepare for games even from a young age.

James used to stay up watching footage of his opponent’s team and create notes from that. In this way, he was always ready for his opponents no matter what they threw at him.

Will LeBron James win another ring in his career?

James will be 36 soon, and sooner or later, the basketball world will bid farewell to one of the greatest players of all time. However, as of now, LBJ refuses to decline and is still performing at the MVP level.
