Why isn't LeBron more popular with young players?

The ages haven't lined up to where you have a generation of players that grew up only knowing LeBron. Anybody born before like 02 grew up with Kobe as the top dog for most of their lives and Heat era Bron was the villain.

Maybe in another 5 years it'll be Bron


I don't know

Durant been #1 for awhile for these rookies

Durant's younger than Lebron and came out #1 though.

I think it comes down to Lebron's game not being one that can be replicated. Hardly any player will have his level of speed and power.


Yea the past 3 years the rookies have picked durant


Worth noting: KD joining the Warriors apparently didn't turn off the rookies. In fact, this is the third straight year that he was named the new guys' favorite player and he received a greater percentage of the vote this year than he did in 2014 (25.0 percent) or 2015 (21.2 percent).



Rookie survey: Minnesota's Dunn favored as top rookie

After he left and went to Miami you can tell breh was hurt at the backlash and wanted to fix his image.


Meh..... I don't look at it as he's being extra or trying to do anything more than anyone else in a similar position.

The only thing I really see him try hard at is black empowerment or trynna get his people's paid or advanced

Or passing ability or IQ. Plus most kids love scoring more than passing.
