?Never Gotten in Trouble, Greatest Sports Story?: Draymond Green?s Claim for ?GOAT? LeBron James Gets Charles Barkley?s Support

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is a few games away from reaching the milestone of becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. Even before reaching it, James has been receiving a lot of appreciation and love for his illustrious career, and the ability to reach something which no one thought would be broken. Among current NBA players, Draymond Green from the Golden State Warriors has often taken time to give ‘King James’ his flowers.?

In addition to the Warriors forward, an NBA legend from the Phoenix Suns seems to agree with Green on his recent take on LeBron James. Green, in an interview with USA Today Sports, had high praise for the Lakers star.

In a recent video shared by the page on YouTube, Charles Barkley sat with former NBA player Matt Barnes to talk about basketball. While sharing his thoughts on NBA analyst and ‘Undisputed’ co-host host Skip Bayless for his frequent criticism of LeBron James, Barkley mentioned, “I think LeBron James is the greatest sports story of all-time”.

He went on to justify, “You look at Kobe, Kevin Garnett, Tracy McGrady. I think those are probably the three of the greatest straight-to-high-school players. But they all struggled in the beginning. For him to come into the NBA 18 years old, he was really good.”?

Supporting Green’s take, Barkley shared, “In this generation with social media, he’s never gotten into trouble, he lived up to all the hype. I think it’s probably the greatest story in sports history. In this society where people are out to get you, it’s the greatest sports story of all time”.?

LeBron James set to make history

All eyes are on the 38-year-old, who is set to break Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record in just a few games. Furthermore, James recently passed Steve Nash and Mark Jackson in the all-time assists made list to reach the 4th spot. The 4x NBA champion is in almost every possible list of the NBA, proving why he arguably is the face of the league.?
