Despite entering Year 21 and his sixth season with the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James looks as good as ever physically ahead of the start of the 2023-24 NBA season.
James only appeared in three preseason games, but he showed that he was well past the foot injury that he suffered midway through the 2022-23 NBA campaign.
The King has already put together one of the most impressive resumes of any player in league history, though he could continue to add to it by winning his fifth NBA championship this season.
James has emphasized that he’s committed to winning another title in Los Angeles, and he’s got the roster around him to do so.
Should James win another ring, he would undoubtedly cement his case as the greatest NBA player of all time.
However, when asked if he could be the “GOAT” at another sport, James said it would be lacrosse, via UNINTERRUPTED.

James explains that he would be great on the field and that he’s got good accuracy when it comes to things.
Lacrosse is an interesting answer for the Lakers star as fans probably would’ve expected him to pick something like football instead.
James was a highly-touted football prospect in high school, but later made the wise decision to switch to basketball full-time.
When it comes to lacrosse, there aren’t any players who can match James’ size, speed, and physicality so perhaps he has a point.
Regardless, Los Angeles fans are happy that he decided to stick with basketball as he’s their best shot at adding the franchise’s 18th title.
