Lakers’ LeBron James reacts to making NBA 75th Anniversary Team
With the 2021-22 NBA season underway, it marks the 75th anniversary of the league. To honor the historic milestone, the league announced 75 players to the 75th Anniversary Team.
The team comprises 75 of the best players to have touched the hardwood, and the league rolled out the players in batches of 25.
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James had his name called in the last group Thursday, which was expected.
James will go down as one of the greatest to play the sport because of his accomplishments throughout 18 seasons. Now entering year 19, James is hoping to add more to his collection.
But as the new season unfolds, James took to social media to react to the news:
