I was thinking today, I’ve seen talks about people entering their prime at really old ages, like Karl Malone for example. But that made wonder, who hit the peak of their career at the younger ages? For example, micheal carter Williams practically peaked in his rookie year.

By 26, he had racked up 8xAll Star, 8xAll NBA including 5 straight first teams, 3x DPOY, 5x Rebounding champ, 2x block champ, and a finals appearance. By 28, he was essentially a washed-up big body

Dwight was 28 when got selected for his last all star and all nba selection tho. At 26 he only had racked up 6 all star and all nba selections. He was third team all nba and second team all nba at age 27 and 28 respectfully. And he was still a walking double double for several years after that tbh. I still remember 32 year old Dwight Howard's 30/30 game.
