LeBron James is a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Ever since he made his way to the NBA, James has had high expectations set for him, and somehow, he’s almost always managed to meet them. Entering his 19th season, many assumed these are the twilight years for the King. However, he’s playing on a high level. After his performance tonight, he’s leading the league in scoring average.

This was his second 50 performance in the last three games that LeBron has played. LeBron became the first player over the age of 35 to have multiple 50-point games.

After the game, Stephen A Smith took to Twitter to talk about LBJ’s greatness.
