LeBron James is a basketball phenomenon who continues to amaze the world with his skills and incredible physical condition despite spending years at the top of the game.

“The King” made his NBA debut on October 29, 2003, at a time when many of today’s stars weren’t even born yet. For instance, Victor Wembanyama was born in January 2004, and GG Jackson arrived in December of the same year.

The first player to debut in the NBA after LeBron was Jalen Duren, born in November 2003. By the time many of his current competitors were taking their first steps in life, James was already building his illustrious career.

In February 2005, during his second season in the league, LeBron participated in his first All-Star Game, marking the beginning of a legendary journey.

Now, more than 20 years after his debut, James remains one of the most influential and decorated players in NBA history, proving time and again that age is just a number.
