Dwyane Wade claims LeBron James is playing the best basketball of his career currently
When one thinks of the GOATs of basketball, LeBron James always finds himself in the conversation. Having played brilliant basketball for 19 seasons, it doesn’t look like the King is slowing down anytime soon. Back in March 2021, Gilbert Arenas and Dwyane Wade were asked a simple question.
“Is LeBron the best he’s ever been right now?”
To answer, both of them agreed with the question. Arenas answered and said, “I think because he’s getting slower and the athleticism is going down just a little, he has to play the game the smarter. This is like his best basketball.”
D.Wade, who won 2 rings alongside Bron, also agreed. He said,
“I watch his game and say does he have a weakness in his game? I start from the rim all the way back to half court, he can do everything. He’s good at everything. As a fan, this is the best LeBron I’ve ever seen.”
