- LeBron James has had some incredible teammates in his career
- NBA fans wondered who is his best teammate ever, the Scottie Pippen to his Michael Jordan
- Most fans mentioned that Reaves shouldn’t be on this list so early in his career
LeBron James is one of the greatest players of all time and is still dominating the league. James, across his 20-year career, has had incredible success in the NBA, winning multiple championships. But LeBron didn’t do this alone, as he had some great players alongside him.
But who was his best teammate, the Scottie Pippen to his Michael Jordan? NBA fans debated this on a now-deleted post, with players like Dwyane Wade, Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, and Austin Reaves being mentioned.
Most fans noted that Austin Reaves, despite his talent, doesn’t belong on this list because he hasn’t played as long with LeBron, and hasn’t won a championship with him. There was no consensus on who his best teammate was, with some fans bringing up other All-Star teammates like Chris Bosh and Kevin Love.
The answer to this question is not as straightforward as one would imagine. While James’ most successful stint came when he played with Dwyane Wade, one could argue that LeBron was at his best, and could cover for Wade who was struggling with injuries at the time.
Who Is The GOAT LeBron James Teammate?
LeBron James has had some incredible teammates during his career. Even when some of these players were past their prime, they were incredibly important to James leading his team to success. Players like J.R. Smith, Rajon Rondo, and Ray Allen were far from their best but were able to contribute to LeBron’s championship wins.
As for his All-Star teammates, James has won an NBA championship with each All-Star level teammate he has had, specifically when these teammates are also regular All-Stars and in their primes.
James is still a superstar and has another superstar in Anthony Davis by his side. With AD and a solid roster around him, James will vie for his fifth NBA championship with the Lakers. Charles Barkley believes the Lakers are one of only four real championship contenders next season.
During his career, despite having great teammates, James has always been the number one option. He has averaged 27.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 7.3 assists across his career.
These incredible performances led him to 4 NBA championships and Finals MVPs, and 4 regular season MVP trophies.
On top of that, James has collected 19 All-Star selections, and become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer.
