NBA Curry and LeBron James
NBA (DR)

For many years, LeBron James and Curry were the standard bearers of the league. Their rivalry has left its mark on the minds of many fans, but we must recognize that we are fast approaching the end of this era. Who will be their successors?

Starting in the mid-2000s, LeBron James was considered the face of the league. About ten years later, Stephen Curry came to compete with him for this unofficial title.

The individual and collective rewards were shared for many seasons between the two men… However, this era which made so many people dream is soon coming to an end.

The King being 39 years old and the Chef 36 years old, the two superstars are inevitably getting closer to the day of their retirement. Their absence while the playoffs are in full swing is also proof that their dominance is indeed on the wane.

So, the basketball world is looking for those who will take over. Two names have quickly emerged among the favorites in recent days:

Who to become the face of the league after Stephen Curry and LeBron James?

When LeBron and Curry retire, the two faces of the league will be Victor Wembanyama and Anthony Edwards. The league is in good hands

Victor Wembanyama was tipped to become the future face of the league even before he set foot on American courts for the first time. His fantastic debut therefore only confirmed this thought.

Anthony Edwards, still in the running in these playoffs, also gives himself serious arguments in this discussion. As a result, many say that we are witnessing the beginnings of a duel that will span the ages.

You see what I’m seeing…

It will be like seeing Michael Jordan against LeBron James during the same era.

Who will be the headliners in the NBA after the retirement of LeBron James and Stephen Curry? Many Internet users are betting on Victor Wembanyama and Anthony Edwards to take on this role, but only the future will be able to prove them right.
