Michael Jordan and LeBron James are two of the greatest basketball players of all time. And in most cases, they would be number one and two on the list, depending on who you ask.

People always thought LeBron and Jordan had a fraught relationship. Unlike Jordan and Kobe, who were really close to each other on and off the court. In a recent podcast interview, Michael’s son Marcus was asked the same question. When asked about LeBron’s and Michael’s relationship and the so called, he said” They are both really competitive….outside the admiration they both respect each others game”.  He further continued,” It’s always family , it’s always love whenever we see each other“.

It has always been postulated that Jordan and LeBron don’t go along well, but this interview should dissipate those fears. Though most of this discourse also stems from the fan debates which continue to rage on various social media platforms.

The Cleveland Cavaliers drafted LeBron as the first overall choice in another star-studded NBA Draft in 2003.

After reaching another two NBA Finals with the Cavs, he went to the Lakers and won another championship in the 2019-20 season. LeBron and Michael are two of the game’s greatest and should be treated as such.
