By 2020, everything was in place. Despite the season being interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and relocated to the NBA bubble in Orlando, LeBron led the Lakers to the Finals. There, he faced the Miami Heat, the team he had once brought to glory, and he did not miss his chance. Dominating the series, LeBron guided the Lakers to their 17th championship, tying them with the Boston Celtics for the most in NBA history. He was named Finals MVP, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest players to ever participate in the game. “This is why I came here,” he said during the celebration. “To bring the Lakers back on top.”

Since then, LeBron has continued to defy age, leading the team through both highs and lows. In 2023, he broke the all-time scoring record, surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and cementing his status as the league's greatest scorer. Now in his 22nd season, LeBron's mission remains the same: to win, compete, and push the Lakers to greatness. With every game, he is adding to a legacy that stretches across three franchises, proving that no matter where he goes, winning follows. Additionally, by playing alongside his own son, Bronny James Jr., this year, LeBron further solidifies his satus as the greatest of all time.
