LeBron James is arguably one of the greatest basketball players to ever hit an NBA floor and as he is set to turn 37 by the end of the year, but some don’t believe he’s one of the best active players.
According to an offseason survey by ESPN, scouts and executives believe Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Durant are the best players in the NBA. James didn’t receive any votes.
“He’s unlocked a different cheat code at both ends that gives him that spot,” one Eastern Conference executive told ESPN of Antetokounmpo. “You can certainly argue for Durant and LeBron [James], but between injury and age, can they consistently do it?”
James on Thursday appeared to take it as a slight and expressed his frustration on social media. He appeared to vow to use the poll as fuel for the upcoming season.
