James Worthy still in awe of LeBron James’ greatness
James Worthy spoke on the Lakeshow podcast about LeBron James. He admitted that James’ sustained excellence even at this stage of his career is astonishing.
Despite being 40 years old, James is still one of the best conditioned athletes in the NBA, and continues to excel at the highest level.
“We’re going to find out that LeBron is not human. He’s alien. What he’s been able to do in this game, with the wear and tear of the travel.
“I know everything’s been improved, and they got better trainers, but I don’t care. Still, to put in those types of minutes and play with the type of force that he plays with… I was done at my 13th year.
“He makes it fun; he never stops working out. He broke the old formula for longevity. It just continues to amaze me that he can dominate. He dominated the last couple of years.
“He loves the game, and to see him still, I don’t have the words for it.”
