LeBron James is 38 years old, and while he may still be one of the best players in the NBA, there are subtle signs that he is getting old. James hasn’t let his game get impacted with age, but he tends to load manage more in order to stay fit throughout the season.

LeBron was named the NBA’s Player of the Week in the Western Conference as he led the Los Angeles Lakers to some sensational wins in the week. As a result, James was ruled out of the Lakers’ most recent matchup against the Denver Nuggets.

In the absence of LeBron James, the Nuggets proved to be too much for the Lakers and won the game without any trouble.


Skip Bayless Calls Out LeBron James For Missing The Lakers vs. Nuggets Game

Skip Bayless has made a career out of hating LeBron James. Over the years, Skip’s hate for James hasn’t diminished, if anything, it has only increased. A few days ago, Bayless admitted that he is a fan of LeBron’s game.

Despite that, the veteran NBA analyst cannot seem to control the urge to call out LeBron for the smallest things. Skip recently did so by berating James for sitting out against the Nuggets while simultaneously praising Michael Jordan.

Wait, LeBron isn't playing tonight at Denver, the best in the West? Ankle injury? Did this happen in practice? No idea. All I know for sure is Michael Jordan played all 82 games NINE TIMES – including all 82 at age 39. The no-doubt GOAT also played 81 one season and 80 another.

Wait, LeBron isn’t playing tonight at Denver, the best in the West? Ankle injury? Did this happen in practice? No idea. All I know for sure is Michael Jordan played all 82 games NINE TIMES – including all 82 at age 39. The no-doubt GOAT also played 81 one season and 80 another.

It is true that Jordan has played 82 games in a season 9 times, but using that fact to downplay LeBron seems a bit of a stretch. Either way, there is a very slim chance that Skip will understand that, as he is hellbent on criticizing James.
