LeBron James' level of play for 20 straight All-Star games is out of this world

LeBron James has been dominating the league for twenty-one consecutive years and his NBA All-Star participation number 20 is a statement of that. The Lakers superstar may be 39 years old but he is still one of the best in the league.

The Lakers superstar is the Western Conference leader and with 14 minutes of playtime, 8 points scored with 4 rebounds, and 3 assists keeps showing his greatness for the 20 consecutive All-Star game that shouldn't be taken for granted.

LeBron James spoke early to the press that he is injured, the reason why he missed the game vs. Utah Jazz, still he made an effort and is giving a show to the people in attendance at Indiana for the NBA All-Star contest.

"Trying to get my ankle as strong and as back to where I feel confident that I can finish off this last third of the season," James said. "I won't be playing the entire game tonight, for sure. I can get out there and run around with the young guys for a little bit and then shut it down at some point to give my body, and my ankle more importantly, another opportunity to rest."

LeBron James believes the LA Lakers are trending on the right direction

"The most important thing for me is definitely my health, where I'm at right now, where our team is leaning," James said. "We're trending in the right direction."
