LeBron James has a true shooting of 67.1%, second highest in the league. Curry has 68.5%.

LeBron turns 39 in a month. He leads the league in 4th quarter points per game and 4th quarter plus minus.

Curry turns 36 in a few months, he is averaging 30/5/4 on 48/45/93 splits.

They are both the backbone of their team. LeBron is leading the Lakers in points, assists, field goal percentage and plus minus. He is second in rebounds, blocks, steals and 3 point percentage. Curry is leading the Warriors in points, Klay is second with just 14.4 ppg with 40/34/88 splits.

The old guard is still at the top of the league. LeBron, Curry and KD are all top 10 still, their impact still undeniable. These 3 might just average 20+ ppg into their 40s. Crazy to think how a guy known for his shitty ankles, a guy known for his lanky frame and a guy best known for athleticism have a case for the 3 players with the best longevity.

Klay's always been a slow starter, so it's hard to gauge, but this could be the end of his time as a starter level player.

I think the Warriors will keep starting him anyway, but it might be worthwhile to give the young guys some of his minutes.
