As LeBron James grows a bit longer in the tooth, the world's greatest old athlete is pulling for the Los Angeles Lakers star to continue dominating.
James on Wednesday turned 36 years old, an irrelevant number as the future Hall of Famer shows zero signs of slowing down. "Happy Birthday" wishes for James poured in from across the sports world, with 43-year-old Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady among those participating.
Take a look:
James is averaging 22.8 points, 7.5 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game through four contests this season. The defending champion Lakers are off to a 4-0 start.
Brady and the 10-5 Bucs, meanwhile, are set to square off with the Atlanta Falcons before the competing in the NFL Playoffs.
