LeBron James has been on a clapback spree recently. The oldest player in the league is open to all the smoke as the noise against his name continues to grow. There have been a lot of doubts regarding King James and whether he can still perform, considering he is 38 years old now.

However, it seems like LeBron is not only proving everyone wrong, but is also looking to make people eat their words. Recently, after a LeBron rant session on Instagram, an NBA veteran talked about the LA Lakers superstar. The 43-year-old said that he is a fan of “petty” LeBron and unveiled one trait that he likes about him the most.

King James is playing in his 21st season in the league. As impressive as the feat alone sounds, the 38-year-old is putting out numbers to match his reputation as well. Every other game, the fans get to witness his brilliance, despite his age. This makes people wonder, how much more does LeBron have left in the tank? While the speculations about his future are in full flow, several doubters have tried to mask his zeal to perform in different ways. Regardless, his numbers speak for him, and to top it off, LeBron takes to his social media to give people a taste of their own medicine.

Recently, Richard Jefferson talked about LeBron’s latest habit of letting things out on his social media and clapping back at his naysayers himself. While he said that LeBron is still a “petty d*ck”, Jefferson admitted to being a fan of all this drama. As per the NBA veteran, King James deserves to clap back at people when he feels like he’s being doubted. Especially when he can still perform at a high level and help his team get results.

There were a lot of talks about Anthony Davis being the leader of the team this season. However, with just a handful of games into the new season, we can see the King is still leading from the front.

At the beginning of the season, King James had announced that the Lakers would be AD’s team going into the new season. He wasn’t the only person to feel that, although he was the only one who was coming from a positive place. With the conversation around LeBron’s age, the leadership position at the Lakers has been in question for a long time.

With several pundits and fans demanding AD finally step up, LeBron cemented the idea by announcing it himself. However, we are yet to see a dominant AD performance, while we have already seen several from King James.
