Lakers News: LeBron James Named AP Male Athlete Of The Decade

LeBron James has already cemented himself as one of the greatest athletes — regardless of sport — in history.

The 2010s decade was undoubtedly a strong one for James as he accomplished everything an athlete would hope to.

James won three NBA championships while winning NBA Finals MVP in each of them. He also won three of his four regular season MVPs this decade, was an All-Star every season, and was All-NBA First Team in all but one of those seasons. He was named AP Athlete of the Year three times as well so when it came to choosing their athlete of the decade, there was no question who it would be.
