James, the NBA’s leading scorer, spoke about Porzingis’ change with a gorgeous comparison

“There’s a saying that life’s best teacher is experience. Tatum is 25 and has been to the Eastern Conference Finals four times and the League Finals once. I won my first title at 28, if I’m not mistaken, MJ [Maikls Džordans] also, Joker [Nikola Jokičs] – at 27 years old,” said James.

Podcast host J. J. Redick, who was also an NBA player at one time, added that Kobe Bryant, playing without Shaquille O’Neal, and Stephen Curry also won their first NBA championship at about the same age.

“We have high hopes for Tatum, everyone wants to see that he doesn’t stumble along the way. He has experienced a lot of victories at his age – it’s elite. And his growth continues,” said the four-time NBA champion.

“They [“Celtics”] is now in position to challenge for the title again. And the club management helps. Bringing in Porzingis and Holiday in exchange for a package of Lays potato chips also helped a lot,” James said with a laugh.

The “Celtics” represented by Porzingis are currently the leader in both the Eastern Conference standings and the overall league standings with 55 wins and 14 losses.

Meanwhile, the legendary James with the Los Angeles “Lakers” team still has to fight for entry into the “play-off” tournament – currently the ninth place in the West with a balance of 37-32.

Porzingis averaged 20.4 points in 48 games this season, which is the third best score in the “Celtics” team (27.1 for Tatum and 23.2 for Jaylen Brown).

On the other hand, point guard Holliday participated in 61 games, averaging 12.8 points and 4.9 assists.
