HOF Heat player speaks about LeBron James’ longevity
LeBron James’ longevity should be his greatest achievement. At this age, not one player has even come close to being as good as the Lakers’ star in the league’s history, and perhaps nobody ever will. James’ putting Luke Kornet on the poster on Wednesday was a testament that he was still a great player at days short of 41.
Former Miami Heat player and Hall of Fame inductee, Alonzo Mourning, compared James to Tom Brady and Tiger Woods in for his longevity.
“Nobody’s done it the way he’s done it, ever,” Mourning said on Dec. 4 in an interview with Video Gamer. “Scoring leader in our history, and for him to play the most games, the most years, kinda speaks to his longevity. It speaks to how well he takes care of his body, how well he’s invested into his body. Kind of speaks to all of that.
“I think this is all entertaining to us to see somebody at his age do it the way he’s doing it, because it’s very rare. You think about the great ones — you think about Tom Brady, you think about Tiger [Woods] — that really did it at ages where people wouldn’t expect them to excel, and LeBron is put in that category for sure.”
In the 132-119 loss to the Spurs, LeBron James finished the game with 19 points, 15 rebounds and 8 assists in 36 minutes.
