LeBron James reacts to NBA 2K rating: ‘Ain’t so bad for an old head’

For just the second time in his 15-year career, LeBron James will grace the cover of this year’s edition of NBA 2K. However, this year’s copy will be especially popular, not because it’s NBA 2K’s 20th Anniversary, but because it’s the first game that will have James on the Los Angeles Lakers.

Gone are the days when people would have to enable trade override to get James on the Lakers, because he’ll be on the roster for at least the next three years, as strange as that still sounds.

On Tuesday, 2K released James’ rating and to no surprise, it’s one of the highest in the game, if not the highest.
