LeBron James has recorded a remarkable start to the 2020-21 season, often carrying the Los Angeles Lakers on his shoulders in a time of need.
The four-time NBA champion is averaging a career-low 33.1 minutes per game yet still putting up 25.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 7.5 assists over the first 20 games of the season. James has stepped up and emerged as L.A.’s driving force while his All-Star companion Anthony Davis has been looking to get out of a slump.
The 36-year-old’s display has drawn an abundance of praise from the NBA community reigniting the debate over his chances in the MVP Award race this season.
