Despite his numerous accolades and iconic moments, LeBron James says one thing would stand above the rest as his crowning NBA achievement.
That achievement would be to share the court with his son LeBron 'Bronny' James Jr.
In an interview with UNINTERRUPTED before Game 1 of the NBA Finals, LeBron discussed the possibility.

LeBron made sure to add that he wants to share the court with his son no matter what — whether that's on the same team together or against each other.
You want to ask me what's the greatest achievement of my life? If I'm on the same court as my son in the NBA. That would be number one in my lifetime as an NBA player.
And given the level the NBA star is currently playing at, that possibility might not be so outlandish. LeBron is 33 years old while Bronny is 13 (soon to be 14). By the time his son reaches the minimum age requirement for the NBA of 19, LeBron will be 38.
Mulitple NBA stars have played into their 40s, including Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Dikembe Mutumbo and Vince Carter, who is still playing.
Seeing one of the top players of all time, who's fresh off a campaign that saw him play all 82 regular season games while averaging 27.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 9.1 assists, compete until his late 30s or early 40s doesn't seem like all that farfetched of an idea.
