NBA – The Top 50 players in the league revealed, huge controversy surrounding LeBron:
They really put Anthony Davis ahead of LeBron James
Close to forty and therefore obviously also retired, LeBron James tends to no longer appear in the Top 10 of the best players in the league.
In itself, there’s nothing particularly shocking about it… but be careful not to go too far and a famous American media outlet has rightly caused controversy on this subject.
At 38 years old and even soon 39 since he will celebrate it on December 31, LeBron James remains amazingly dominant in the NBA.
While most of his peers would already be retired at this point, the Lakers winger continues to perform at an insane level night after night. 25.7 points at 58% shooting including 41% from distance, 8.1 rebounds and 6.7 assists on average: this is extremely strong for someone in his near forties.
If the Purples and Golds have a positive record to date (9 wins for 7 losses, 7th in the Western Conference), it is largely thanks to the performances of the King who is openly aiming for a fifth championship ring before retiring. .
We could therefore imagine that he would enjoy the greatest respect among observers… but the Top 50 recently revealed by The Ringer proves the opposite.

LeBron behind… Anthony Davis in The Ringer Top 50
This is not the first time that an American media has placed LBJ outside its Top 10 in recent months and it is ultimately not so surprising since he is in the twilight of his career.
what is, however, is seeing Anthony Davis in front of him.
Certainly, the latter has monstrous talent and is a hit in defense, but he is quite irregular in attack. Obviously enough to make Chosen One fans roar:
They legit put AD above Bron?😭😂

If it is indeed LeBron James who is still the boss of the Lakers this season and not Anthony Davis, it is not without reason.
The Brow is much more likely to disappear during a match than his friend… even if we imagine that the future Hall of Famer would not be against seeing AD take more of the reins.
