Draymond Green Heaps High Praise On LeBron James: “There’s Never Been A Better Face Of The NBA”

Though fresh faces like Luka Doncic, Jayson Tatum, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Nikola Jokic are taking over the NBA with MVP-worthy performances night in and night out, there’s no doubt that no one has overtaken four-time NBA champion LeBron James as the face of the NBA just yet.

His overall accolades, marketability and personality are just on a different level. He has emerged as a GOAT candidate, is still the most talked-about NBA player, has a massive international support, and still tops the NBA when it comes to views, merchandise sales, All-Star votes and endorsements. 

That type of impact deserves a lot of credit, so Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green made sure to give LeBron his due. Appearing on his own podcast, Draymond heaped high praise on LeBron and said that there’s never been a face of the NBA than the 38-year old Lakers superstar.

“I take my hat off to LeBron,” Green said. “For what he’s done, for what he’s doing, on and off the court, there’s never been a better face of the NBA, and I’m not sure there ever will be a better face of the NBA.”
