The King just doesn’t seem to age. LeBron James is in his 17th year with the NBA and still displays some of the best basketball we’ve ever seen.

Well, we know him for keeping himself in the best of shape and at the peak of his athleticism even at the age of 35, and we don’t see him slowing down anytime soon either.

The Los Angeles Lakers won a championship title after a decade, and it was all under James’ leadership. There is no doubt that his contribution as an on-court and off-court mentor for the younger players paid off.

Still, at the prime of his career, analysts bill LeBron as a ‘superhuman’. And it’s not just them, it’s his teammates as well. Danny Green has played with some of the biggest men in the league, and LeBron is clearly the best of them.

Joe stated that Danny has played with the likes of Tim Duncan, Kawhi Leonard, and now with Anthony Davis and LeBron. He was then asked, “Is there something superhuman of LeBron James?” Danny was quick to respond and said, “For sure!

“Every day I see, when he steps foot in the facility, when he wakes up, How are you at 35 and have so much energy or bounce? Not just in basketball on the court, but in your daily life,” Danny explained.

“The next day(after a match) I am walking, limping, you know, sluggish. LeBron somehow every day, he might get some stretching and massaging before he gets out of the room, but he’s walking like he’s good.

“He’s been doing it for 17 years. So, that to me kind of makes him superhuman.”

With Danny Green and Anthony Davis, the King is thriving and there won’t be any stopping him from being a major title contender come 2021.
