He’s clutch and can score at will,” he says. Lebron plays Power Forward, Small Forward, and Shooting Guard. Lebron averages 26.4 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 8.7 assists a game. James has won 3 NBA championships and 4 NBA Most Valuable Player Awards.

Stephen Curry averages about 25.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.6 assists a game. Curry won the NBA Most Valuable Player Award and led the Warriors to their first championship since 1975. The following season, he became the first player in NBA history to be elected MVP by a unanimous vote and to lead the league in scoring while shooting above 50–40–90.

Zahra Hassan, an 8th grader at Unis Middle School says “Lebron James is the greatest of all time NBA player.” “ He has so much potential and he’s such a good player. He’s one of the 5 players with at least 4 MVPS along with Wilt Chamberlain, Micheal Jordan, Bill Russel, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has most MVPS. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has 6 MVPS but Lebron is still playing so no doubt he will surpass Abdul-Jabbar’s record,” Zahra says. Lebron has also won 3 NBA Finals MVP Awards, 2 Olympic gold medals, an NBA scoring title, and the NBA Rookie of the Year Award.
