NBA superstar LeBron James is regularly cited as one of the best players in the history of the American League. A true competitor at heart, the King gives everything on the court to lead his team to victory. But there are times when he wanted to evolve in an individual sport like tennis. A former player of this sport therefore thanked LeBron James for having chosen basketball given the monsters that there are already like Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal or Novak Djokovic.
At 37, LeBron James is still one of the best players in the NBA at present. The versatile star is a model of longevity, as she will be taking part in her 20th season in the American League. Since its inception in 2003, the King has had time to build up a solid track record. Between his visits to Cleveland Cavaliersau Miami Heat and to Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James won four titles NBA (2012, 2013, 2016, 2020) was also four-time Finals MVP (2012, 2013, 2016, 2020), four-time regular season MVP (2009, 2010, 2012, 2013), three-time All-Star Game (2006, 2008, 2018) and other accolades. True competitor at heart, LeBron James always does his best to win the victory on the floor. So inevitably, when his teammates are not on the same wavelength, the King has sometimes wished to evolve in an individual sport such as tennis. ” There were times I wished I was a tennis player, or a golfer when it was literally like, look in the mirror, it’s you against you he was also able to admit during a recent interview, in remarks reported by EssentiallySports.com. As a result, the star of Los Angeles Lakers was thanked for choosing a career in basketball.
I just heard the comment that @KingJames sometimes wishes he played tennis instead. As someone who already played in the @rogerfederer @RafaelNadal @DjokerNole era, thank you for picking basketball.
