Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, now holding the record for being the oldest player in the NBA following Udonis Haslem’s retirement, had a hilarious response when asked about starting his 21st season.
Making an eerie shrieking motion with his hands before performing a spectacular dunk, James, at the age of 38, is expected to defy conventional expectations for a player in his 21st year. The NBA’s official Twitter account shared James’s reaction, and he also posted the video on his social media accounts with emojis mimicking his expressions.
Despite considering retirement in 2017, James returned to the game fueled by a renewed passion for coaching his sons. With the Lakers’ roster largely intact and key additions like center Christian Wood, James and his team are considered frontrunners for the championship as they begin their season on October 24 in Denver.
