In a stunning display of resilience and determination, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers overturned a 22-point deficit to defeat the Phoenix Suns 123-116 on Friday evening at the Crypto.com Arena. This victory marked the Lakers' second win of the season, pushing their record to 2-0.
LeBron James, despite being 39 years old and nearing his 40th birthday in December, continues to defy age and expectations. He contributed significantly to the Lakers' win, scoring 21 points on 7-of-13 shooting, along with four rebounds, eight assists, and two three-pointers in 35 minutes of play.
However, the most noteworthy aspect of the evening was James' bold declaration following the game. In a statement that has sent shockwaves through the NBA, James announced his intention to play all 82 games of the 2024-25 season, barring any injuries. This ambition is particularly remarkable given that James has only completed a full 82-game season once in his career, back in the 2017-18 season with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Over his six years with the Lakers, James has averaged 58.2 games per season, with his recent years marred by injuries that have kept him off the court for multiple games. Yet, his resolve for this season is clear: he is determined to play every game in his 22nd year in the NBA.
James' commitment to playing in back-to-back games, including the upcoming match against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday, further underscores his dedication. This stance also addresses recent controversies surrounding 'load management' in the NBA, with James firmly shutting down any talks of resting games.
As the Lakers prepare for their next challenge, James' statement has ignited a mix of excitement and curiosity among fans and analysts alike. While his body's ability to withstand the rigors of a full season remains to be seen, James' mindset is undeniably in the right place. This bold declaration cements his status as one of the most enduring and dominant figures in the NBA.
