The Los Angeles Lakers superstar who is widely regarded as one of the best players to ever step on a court and is often in the conversation for the greatest player ever, shattered a personal milestone after he spent a whopping 6,879 days as an NBA player more than half his lifespan.
The 37-year-old superstar was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers after impressing in his high school days at St Vincent-St Mary’s, and then had an NBA career spanning 19 years where he turned out for the Cavaliers over two spells, Miami Heat and the Los Angeles Lakers.
After a celebrated career like the mentioned where he won four NBA Championship titles and four MVP awards and shattered multiple NBA records, King James has now achieved a personal milestone after he officially spent half of his entire lifespan in the NBA as a player.
What is the said personal milestone that LeBron has hit?
The personal milestone that James hit means he has now spent more of his life as an NBA player than not being one.
While there were only 6,878 days between his birth and his NBA debut for the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2003, there are now 6,879 days between his NBA debut and present day encompassing a career that will certainly go down in history as one of the greatest careers ever.
The record essentially means that since being selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers as their first draft pick in the 2003 NBA draft as an 18-year-old, LeBron James has spent more than half of his entire lifespan turning out for multiple franchises in the NBA an exact day more than his life from being born in Akron, Ohio to making his NBA debut for the Cleveland outfit.
With two years to go on his present deal at the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron will hope to win another Championship in the next two seasons in order to win his fifth ring and solidify himself as the best just in case his argument in the conversation is not strong enough already.
