  LeBron James didn't hesitate when asked who he'd pick to play 2v2 against Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen The King picked the best of his past teammates to take on the iconic Chicago Bulls duo LeBron James didn't have to deliberate for long when choosing which players he'd want to team up with for a hypothetical two-v-two game against Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. Now in his 22nd NBA season, the 40-year-old LA Lakers superstar has played with some of the most decorated and skilled players in the game's recent history. Just last month, another NBA star was added to James' illustrious list of colleagues when the Lakers acquired Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks in a shock trade. James will be hoping Doncic can help drive the Lakers to a first title since 2020, which would give the veteran forward a fifth career championship ring.         The debate over who should be considered the greatest NBA player of all time almost always centres around ...

Curry's haul came from just 25 shots - the second-fewest in NBA history in a match with 55-plus points behind the 24 James Harden needed with the Houston Rockets in 2019.
