NBA superstar LeBron James is regarded as one of the best players in the sport. He is often included in the GOAT debates alongside legendary players like Michael Jordan and the late Kobe Bryant. However, James has put in a lot of work over his 22-year NBA career to be included in these debates. The NBA social media team recently revealed his full pre-game routine for the Los Angeles Lakers.

LeBron James has plenty of time to prepare for the game physically and emotionally because he gets to the arena between 1:30- 1.40 PM. His dedication to his pre-game routine and attention to being completely prepared for tip-off is evident in his early arrival. He then moves to the locker room at around 2:15 PM.

James spends roughly 20 minutes warming up in the locker room after arriving. To lower the chance of damage, this session aims to warm up his muscles and increase blood flow. To get his body free and ready for optimal performance later in the evening, James works out with mobility exercises, stretching, and mild cardio.

The Lakers star continues to surprise people in his 22nd season, and he dominates the NBA in large part because of his detailed, orderly game-day routine.
