LeBron James

We’ve officially reached the thousands, perhaps quite literally, in terms of the number of statistics one could use to explain the ageless gracefulness of the Los Angeles Lakers’ superstar in Year 22, but for a legend’s sake, here’s one more. The oldest players to make an All-NBA team; a 40-year-old LeBron James, a 39-year-old by the name of LeBron James — you might’ve heard of him — and a 38-year-old megastar that some refer to as “The King.” Whether he overpowered opponents with still-breathtaking athleticism or conquered them mentally, James did it like few others could, mixing trademark chasedown blocks and tomahawks with clutch buckets and see-everything dimes. James’ 2024-25 season was, in many ways, unlike anything basketball history had ever chronicled, as he guided the third-seeded Lakers’ title pursuit with future Hall of Famers and family members alike. Reinventing himself and remaining elite at what previously worked at once, James’ final averages read as follows: 24.4 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 8.2 assists per game on standout efficiency (51-38-78 percentage splits) across the floor.
