In terms of career statistics, Jordan averaged 30.1 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 5.3 assists, winning six NBA championships and five MVP awards, while LeBron boasts averages of 27.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 7.4 assists, along with four NBA championships and four MVP awards.

Jordan made these remarks during the press conference, recalling a similar sentiment he shared back in 2015.

He acknowledged LeBron as an exceptional player and one of the best in the world, further highlighting the respect he has for his contemporaries.

LeBron James's impressive career includes four NBA championships and four MVP awards, solidifying his legacy in the sport.

Michael Jordan holds the record for points per game in NBA history and is the only player to score 63 points in a playoff game, while LeBron James is recognized as the all-time leading scorer in the league.

During a recent press conference, Jordan acknowledged the ongoing comparisons between their eras, emphasizing that while such comparisons are natural, he respects LeBron's impact on the game and considers himself a fan of his play.

Jordan expressed confidence in his ability to defeat LeBron in a one-on-one matchup during his prime, stating there is 'no question' about it.

Both players have made significant contributions to basketball, with Jordan being inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2009 and James expected to achieve first-ballot Hall of Fame status upon his retirement.
