How long can LeBron realistically play?

[Anerdyblackguy]

The way he takes rest days (played 82 games once) and minutes restrictions (his average minutes is around 36 over the last three years) and the advanced technology he uses it’s reasonable to say he’ll be a dominant player for the next 4-5 years.

If he eventually takes a Vince Carter role, dude may play till he’s 50. Although at this rate, I think he may stick around to give the all time assist record a run.

Hell naw. Bron’s stats matter way too much to take VC role...

really no all time player should take a Vince role

Lebron is 3rd all time in ppg after 17yrs....he’s not gonna stick around once he can’t play at an elite level anymore. I’d say he can go til he’s 40

Tough to say. Being that he's 6'10 with shoes makes it a lot easier with his style of play.

I initially thought that the wouldn’t, but I remember an interview awhile back where Vince said he loved the game so much he just wanted to play as long as he could. And then you look at all the older players hooping they ass off in the Big 3. I could see Bron hanging on just for the love of the game.

mans with Bron’s massive point totals, it’s gonna take a bunch of 10ppg seasons to even lower it below 25.

I'm not wishing it on him at all but I think an injury is going to stop him.. Everyone breaks down eventually

 

[SadimirPutin]

5 years tops...

I think he will want to move on by then.....go drink wine work on his business and film venturres

Still actively rooting against a player on your own team? Even while he's in the Finals?

 

[kaldurahm]

He can play till 40

 

[NaijaProdigy Redux]

My guess is he wants to play 5 more seasons.

I could see him maintaining elite level play for 2-3 years given his style

 

[craigsagersuit]

Just long enough until bronny comes to the league

 

[NatiboyB]

Bron will probably play about 2-3 seasons of his son is nba good he will play until his son is a rookie

Breh is hands down one of the worst posters on here.

 

[Paper Boi]

barring injury issues.. based off his passing and size alone, he could be a top PG for years to come if he wants to, even if his ability to get to the basket starts to dwindle.

 

[Fctftl]

I could see him goin to 40.
