In a cut-throat league where age could be a major factor as it declines the players’ physical ability, LeBron continues his spectaculars. Even at 38, King James continues to average 29 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 6.8 assists in his appearance in 32 games.

Meanwhile, various sources suggest that the Lakers forward LeBron James could become the oldest player in the league. At the moment, the four-time champ is one of the third oldest players in the league, behind Udonis Haslem and Andre Iguodala.

Following their retirement, LeBron, who is still on top of his game, could become the oldest active player in the league. However, Carmelo Anthony is still in the picture, who is five months older than the Akron Hammer.
