LeBron James quickly established himself as one of the league’s premier players after the Cleveland Cavaliers selected him in the 2003 NBA Draft. He led the Cavaliers to their first NBA Finals appearance in 2007 and won the NBA MVP award in both 2009 and 2010. James is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding prospects in NBA history.
Over the years, basketball fans have watched several remarkable talents enter the league, each generating considerable excitement about their potential to become the next big star. Recently, former NBA player Kendrick Perkins weighed in on this discussion, revealing a name that he believes embodies the possibility of being the most exceptional draft prospect since James.
During a recent episode of NBA Today, Perkins spoke highly of San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama. The former NBA player mentioned that Wembanyama is the greatest draft prospect since James.

“The guy that was supposed to go to San Antonio and save the organization. You might need to borrow my costume right now because he is not on the verge of this season showing that. He’s struggling because you know why at 7’5, you got Chris Paul you’ve got to get in the paint,” Perkins said.
After praising Wembanyama, Perkins took a moment to offer some valuable advice. He emphasized the importance of utilizing Wembanyama’s exceptional skills as a big man.

Al Horford’s Sister Voices Support For LeBron and Bronny James
The Los Angeles Lakers selected LeBron James’s son, Bronny, in the second round of the 2024 NBA draft. During the season opener, the James duo made history as the first father-son pair to play together. While many praised this remarkable moment, others—fans, players, and analysts—criticized them. Some fans accused them of nepotism. However, recently, Boston Celtics center Al Horford’s sister, Anna Horford, spoke out in support of the James duo.
“Bronny James playing with his dad is cool & all, but my heart breaks for the players who didn’t get drafted or who are stuck in the G-League knowing they’re legitimately stronger players than him.” Anna Horford wrote in her latest post on X (formerly Twitter).
Fans are eager for the upcoming games as they look forward to witnessing the dynamic James duo in action.
