Recently crowned the champion of the inaugural In-Season Tournament with the Lakers, LeBron James was also named the MVP of the competition. And if some wonder how the King maintains such a level after 21 seasons, Carmelo Anthony seemingly has the answer.

What is the secret to LeBron James’ physical fitness? It’s a question that plagues the minds of many fans and observers. Breaking records one after another, collecting trophies almost every year, nothing seems impossible for the King. Just crowned the In-Season Tournament winner and elected MVP of the competition, the extensive list of achievements of the star forward has grown even larger.

This immeasurable career will, however, come to an end one day, but once again, it is difficult to estimate when that will happen. With an average of 25 points at the age of 38, almost no signs of fatigue can be seen in the superstar. That said, the secret of his longevity may have been revealed by one of his best friends and former teammates, Carmelo Anthony, on Wave Sport+ Entertainment.

LeBron’s longevity secret revealed by Carmelo

The difference between LeBron James and others is discipline. Everyone can say “I want to do it,” but he always knows which path to follow to reach his goals. I could see it up close. I thought I was someone disciplined, but this guy… He is DISCIPLINED! When he is focused, it’s from head to toe. For an athlete who has spent 20 years in the league, I know it requires significant sacrifices.

Not many players can say they have played for two decades, especially in a competition that is only 75 years old.

LeBron’s work ethic is known to all but remains impressive for everyone who encounters the four-time NBA champion. Older fans will also remember all the physical transformations he has gone through.

From the Heat to the Cavaliers to the Lakers, the Chosen One has always demonstrated his determination and hard work. Regardless of the number of awards earned during his career, he seemingly never rested on his laurels. Therefore, superstars like Carmelo Anthony and fans are almost obliged to highlight this quality every passing season.

How can a billionaire stay so disciplined? It’s a job that no one can do for you, no matter your wealth; no one can train for you. This will to succeed forces admiration.

After 21 seasons, LeBron James is still among the best players in the league. And if the Lakers’ star forward can maintain such a level despite being 38 years old, it’s because there is no basketball player as disciplined as him, according to former superstar Carmelo Anthony. It makes complete sense.
