In NBA , which is a strong player, the peak state of a player is basically around 30 years old. After this stage, they are basically going downhill. On the contrary, some players are more stable when they are older. Jabbar can still take it at 37. MVP, Duncan is 36 years old if he doesn't ask for a salary cut, he can still sign a big contract. In the 15-16 season, he is 40 years old and he can average 8.3 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. Carter is only 43 years old. Retired, and in the current league, who can persist until the age of 40?
LeBron James
The 36-year-old James has been in the league for 18 years, won 4 championships and 4 FMVPs, 4 regular season MVPs, and signed with the Lakers in 2018 for 4 years 153 million The US dollar contract, in 2020, the Lakers and James reached a two-year contract extension of 85 million US dollars, averaging 25.0 points, 7.7 rebounds and 7.8 assists in the 2020-21 season. At the age of 36, he can maintain such a competitive state and hit 40. It’s okay to be old enough. Even if the offense is not open, James' defense and experience can also help the team.
Kevin Durant
Durant has been in the league for 14 years, won 2 championships and 2 FMVPs, a regular season MVP, 33 years old this year He averaged 26.9 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 5.6 assists. On August 8, 2021, the Nets and Durant reached an early renewal with a four-year contract of $198 million. Durant's technical characteristics and super scoring means can make him a good survival in the league, unless he can't run, otherwise no one can prevent him.
James Harden
Harden has also played in the NBA for 12 years. He won a regular season MVP and three scoring champions. Harden’s contract was signed with the Rockets in 2017. The contract will be another 22-23 season,$228 million in 6 years, this is the largest contract in history, but because of the long time, the annual salary is not considered the best in the league. Harden averaged 24.6 points, 8.5 rebounds and 10.9 assists in the 20-21 season, which is the engine of the Nets. As long as there is no major injury, with Harden's technical and tactical characteristics, reaching 40 is not a problem at all.
Stephen Curry
This year 33-year-old Curry has been in the league for 12 years. He has won 3 championships and 2 regular season MVPs. In the 20-21 season that just ended He also won a scoring champion, second in NBA history in three-pointers. With Curry’s shooting ability, he can surpass and Ray Allen to become the first in history. Last season he averaged 32.0 points and 5.5 rebounds. With 5.8 assists, Curry, who returned from injury, did not seem to be affected at all. He just signed a four-year $215 million contract with the Warriors during the offseason. Even if the contract is over, there is no problem in signing another contract with his shooting ability. .
Udonis Haslem
Haslem has played for the Heat for 19 seasons. This year he is 41 years old. It can be said that he is watching the Heat step by step. Come, have experienced the peak and the trough, and now the Heat is like a child in his eyes. Last season, the Heat only played one game, a career low, with 4 points and 1 board, but because of friction with Howard, he was expelled by the referee. During the offseason, the Heat signed a contract extension with Haslem. I hope to see Kazakhstan playing on the court.
Chris Paul
This year, 36-year-old Paul led the Suns to the finals for the first time. Unfortunately, he was chased by the Bucks and missed the championship in 4 consecutive games when he was 2:0. After the season, Paul also expressed that he fell in love with this feeling. On August 7, 2021, Paul signed a four-year, $120 million contract with the Suns.Paul was 40 years old when the contract ended. For an old guard who can organize offenses, I don't know how much this signing will bring to the Suns.
Paul Millsap
Maybe many people have gradually forgotten this man, but he can still play 21 minutes per game and average 9 points and 4.7 rebounds. If Being able to integrate into the Nets, with his years of experience and solid basketball skills, he can find his position and extend his career for a few more years. The 36-year-old is okay, he must be okay!
Dwight Howard
You can’t believe that the all-powerful World of Warcraft has now become a tramp. In just 8 years, he changed his team 7 times, but was the best span of 3 times. Defensive player winner and 5 times NBA rebounding leader, his holding power in the interior is not small, you never dare to underestimate the basket guarded by Warcraft, the Lakers won the championship season, averaged 18.9 minutes per game. With 7.5 points and 7.3 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game, he averaged 7.0 points and 8.4 rebounds per game on behalf of the 76ers in 17.3 minutes per game. He can hold the team’s penalty area. He is definitely an excellent blue collar. He is 36 years old.
Andre Iguodala
Brother returned to the Warriors during the offseason, returned to the place where he realized his dream, and returned to his familiar teammates, where he gained With 3 championships and 1 finals MVP, he has been in the league for 17 years. He can retire, but he still wants to play and give all his energy to the basketball he loves. No surprises. He will stay with the Warriors until he retires. He averaged 4.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game on behalf of the Heat last season.Can he play for a few more seasons and teach the young Warriors a few lessons?
Andrew Wiggins
How can this list miss my health brother, he was born in 1995 and has been in the NBA for 7 years, although he has led the team's performance and personal data It’s not prominent, but his essential thermos let the world know who is the first person in the future, and all future historical records will belong to my wolfberry brother. It’s a joke, his own competitive state is indeed good. Since entering the league, except for 54 games in the 19-20 season, other seasons have played more than 70 games, 3 seasons are full attendance, and the average scoring per season has been maintained at about 20 points, and there has been no significant improvement. There is no obvious regression. It seems that the effect of the vacuum flask is still very obvious, haha.
