Yes. It cements Luka being here for those years.

In terms of quality NBA longevity, Lebron is fantastic and if you weight the length of careers heavily in your criteria King James only has Kareem in the conversation with him.
I think it's between he and Wilt as the greatest athletes the sport has ever seen and that might extend to all of sports. Got to throw my guy Bo Jackson if the conversation is expanded to all of sports. If we find out that LeBron is a robot or an alien, it wouldn't surprise me. The mileage on him and his level of play is unprecedented.
