LeBron James led the Los Angeles Lakers to an eight-point win over the Portland Trail Blazers, despite sitting out Luka Doncic. Reaves scored 32 points, but it was LeBron’s second 40-point outing of the season that stole the show. The Lakers’ star shined despite being only a last-minute addition to the All-Star Game lineup.
Reaves praised LeBron for his dedication and work ethic, saying anyone questioning him at this stage in his career is simply holding on to their Michael Jordan fandom. “He never stops,” Reaves said of LeBron’s routine, which includes rigorous practice sessions both before and after games.
The 40-year-old Lakers star continues to set the standard for his teammates, pushing himself to excel in every aspect of the game. Coach JJ Redick echoed this sentiment, saying LeBron defies everything that’s normal with his mentality and work ethic.
