The Cleveland Cavaliers may have won their season opener against the Boston Celtics on Tuesday, but LeBron James isn’t satisfied, especially with his team only winning by a small margin. He was not happy about his conditioning as well, and he made sure he addressed it immediately.
The Cavs superstar did not waste time as he hopped on the VersaClimber right after the game, to get himself in tip-top shape once again. Despite playing a total of 41 minutes on the night, James showed his dedication to getting better by putting on additional work.
LeBron James barely missed out on a triple-double, as he finished with an impressive stat line of 29 points,16 rebounds, nine assists, and two blocks. However, the Celtics still battled strong and even led in the fourth quarter. Luckily for the Cavs, they converted on crucial possessions down the stretch, which helped them secure the 102-99 victory.
The Cavs have a two-day break before they return to action on Friday against the Milwaukee Bucks. With how James has continued to work even after a win, it sends a strong message to the rest of the competition that he will only get better as the season progresses, and that he is ready once again to lead his team’s quest to win another title.
