“Call LeBron James the “washed king” but your GOAT could never do this at 37!”: NBA Twitter lauds King James for joining Kobe Bryant, Shaq, and Baylor as the 4th Laker to score 25+ points in 16 straight games

As LeBron James scores 29 points in the Lakers’ win over the Magic, he joins the likes of Bryant, Shaq, and Baylor as the 4^th player in LAL history to record 25+ points in 16 consecutive games.

Playing at 37 years of age, no one thought it was physically possible for LeBron James to play as dominant as he has been all season long. Having managed to defeat the so-called “father time”, Bron’s incredible production in his 19^th NBA season has been one of the very few positive takeaways from the Lakers’ subpar first half of this 82-game season.

During the Magic-Lakers clash, Bron continued to put on a show. Leading the team to a 116-105 win, LBJ dropped 29 points, grabbed 7 rebounds, dished out 5 assists, along with a block and a steal.

With yet another high-scoring outing, The King now joins the likes of Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, and Elgin Baylor as only the 4^th player in franchise history to record 25+ points in 16 consecutive games.

NBA Twitter goes gaga as LeBron James records 25+ points in 16-straight games

As soon Bron recorded his 16th consecutive 25-point game, NBA Twitter blew up. While many users appreciated greatness by lauding the 4-time MVP, there were a few haters, who did what they do best…hate.

During this 16-game span, Bron has been averaging a staggering 32.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, and 5.8 assists. And now, the 4-time is only 1 25-point game away from tying Trae Young’s longest 25-point game streak of this season.
