LeBron James shows family love with ‘legacy’ comments
What is it LeBron James‘ heritage? The Los Angeles Lakers star is probably the most successful player in NBA history. James is considered by many to be the greatest NBA player of all time, and is at least number two on other people’s lists. Zvezda has done a lot in this league that the fans will remember.
However, if you ask James, the Lakers star’s legacy isn’t his accolades or championships. James’ instead legacy, according to himis the things he did off the court.
“My legacy is my kids, that’s the most important thing,” James said after the Lakers’ victory over the Brooklyn Nets. “My kids, my community, my family. That’s all that matters to me… For me personally, my legacy will be through my kids, through my community and the things I do to continue to inspire. It’s going to be talked about through other people, and hopefully in a good way.”
Make no mistake, James’ legacy on the court cannot be erased from the history books. The Lakers star has four MVPs, four NBA championships, four NBA Finals MVPs, 22 All-Star selections, A total of 21 All-NBA selections and three Olympic gold medals. Widely regarded as THE GOAT, James will go down in the history books as a legend of the game.
James already has one of his sons playing in the NBA: his namesake, LeBron Jr. This made them the first father-son duo to play together and score points in the same game. That’s another part of the Lakers star’s legacy: that he played so long he could have played with one of his own children.
The Lakers star is still putting up respectable numbers at 41 years old. He is averaging 22 points per game, along with 5.7 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game. Against the Nets, James scored 25 points on a ridiculous 10-16 from the field and added seven assists, three steals and three rebounds in an easy 125-109 victory.
