Luke Walton Confident LeBron James Will Play At Elite Level Throughout Entire Contract With Lakers

James, now entering his 16th season at age 33, is coming off of probably his best campaign yet. He played in all 82 games for the first time in his career and averaged 27.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 9.1 assists.

However, now that James has joined a still-growing Los Angeles Lakers team in a loaded Western Conference, questions about his durability moving forward have begun to spark.
