As the home stretch of the 2019-20 NBA regular season approaches, the race for the NBA Most Valuable Player award is beginning to heat up.
Giannis Antetokounmpo remains the heavy favorite, but LeBron James has begun to insert himself into the conversation as a legit possibility.
James’ performance has been truly outstanding this season as he has become the Los Angeles Lakers point guard, leading the league in assists while they have jumped to the top of the Western Conference standings. Making his performance even more unreal is the fact that James is doing this in his 17th NBA season at 35 years old.
