There were major questions about how effective LeBron James could be heading into the 2019-20 season as he was entering Year 17 and coming off a groin injury that robbed him of the second half of his inaugural season with the Los Angeles Lakers.
James quickly put those concerns to bed when the regular season kicked off as he looked rejuvenated on the court. Prior to the season’s hiatus, he was averaging a career-best 10.6 assists while also putting up nearly 26 points and eight rebounds a game.
LeBron also looked much more engaged and active on the defensive end, playing excellent on and off ball defense and quarterbacking the defense on numerous occasions.
