If Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James’ illustrious career ended today, like when Michael Jordan abruptly retired in the wake of a new season in 1993, James’ career would end as a 16-time all-star, three-time NBA Champion, six-time All-Defensive Team, four-time MVP, 15-time All-NBA and three-time Finals MVP.

It would be a career that stands up against most, and in many cases, tops the other greats to ever touch a basketball.

In 2020, many believe there is one accomplishment that could rival all the others I just mentioned.
