Why do so many superstars not decline at that 33-35 age range anymore? (alien.top)

This was definitely a thing just back in the 2000s. You had guys like melo, tmac, Paul pierce, wade, Dwight ect all decline in this age range or way before. People always mentioned lebron still being so good when he was 33. At first that seemed like an anomaly. Now, you have guys like curry, kd, kawhi, dame, lebron still(lol) jimmy butler, all still being in their prime at 33+. Is it an advancement in technology and medicine? Something else?

Im watching podcast about soccer, and Alan Shearer spoke that he went back to Newcastle and he got directed to the sport sience guy that fixed hes knee issue and said if he was playing now he wouldn't have half of the injuries as they would have seen them coming and prevented them etc.
