Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo Has Ultimate Praise For Lakers’ Superstar LeBron James

LeBron James is the best basketball player to ever play the game and Giannis Antetokounmpo agrees on this one. The Milwaukee Bucks superstar has great respect for LeBron and everything he has accomplished over the years.

“Some guys might say he is No. 2, but other guys like me, I say he is No. 1, and he’s still going,” said Giannis.

There’s an ongoing debate about the greatest basketball player of all time. Most fans bet on LeBron, but there are also people who say Michael Jordan is the GOAT. This debate won’t end in the near future.

Antetokounmpo, NBA players respect LeBron

LeBron enters his 21^st season in the NBA. He has had more success than any other player and sets up the blueprint for the rest of the players, per Giannis.

“For 21 years, you never get in trouble, to be able to take in his family, protect this family, raise his kids the right way, you know, be happily married, all those things, it’s perfect,” Antetokounmpo said. “He’s kind of like setting the blueprint for the rest of us to go forward.”

LeBron has an army of supporters and his teammates are definitely on the top of this list. Austin Reaves has talked about LeBron’s greatness on so many occasions and if you ask him, he will say LeBron is the best to ever play the game of basketball.

“The stats show for itself and he does way more than the stats show,” Reaves said. “He’s the best player to ever play.”

Gabe Vincent couldn’t agree more. LeBron is the NBA and this won’t change. He has cemented himself as the face of the NBA and secured his throne. Doubters may try to deny his dominance, but numbers and stats are here to confirm LeBron’s greatness.

“It’s hard to talk about the NBA without mentioning his name,” Gabe Vincent said, per Vardon. “Whether it’s the Heat or you’re in Charlotte, you’re going to mention LeBron’s name.”
