LeBron James has been steadily gaining traction in the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) debate, and it is possible that he might surpass Michael Jordan in the future. James recently mentioned that if not for basketball, he could have been in GOAT conversations in other sports as well.
During a Q&A session with “Uninterrupted,” the four-time NBA champion shared that he could have been among the greatest in lacrosse. Lacrosse is the oldest organized sport in North America, demanding high athleticism and speed from players. James believes he possesses all the physical and mental qualities necessary to be the best in this sport.
James confidently stated, “If I wasn’t the GOAT in basketball … I would be GOAT in … lacrosse, and I would be a beast out on the field. It’s fast, it’s physical. I got pretty good, like, accuracy when it comes to things.” His claim is not surprising given his extraordinary athleticism and success in basketball, which could potentially transfer to other sports such as lacrosse.
With his current trajectory, it is not far-fetched to imagine LeBron James surpassing Michael Jordan in the future. While he has already achieved remarkable success in basketball, his potential in other sports only adds to the intrigue surrounding the ongoing GOAT debate.
