Jay-Z paid tribute to LeBron James during the NBA 2023 All-Star Game this Sunday (Feb. 19). James recently became the NBA's all-time leading scorer, surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to take the title.
“Being able to perform at a high level for a long period of time, you know, that’s excellence,” he said during the three-minute clip which also featured his songs “What More Can I Say” and “Show Me What You Got.” “Long after you’ve gone, people, they’re looking at your name. That’s what greatness is. There are not many you can compare LeBron to. 19-time All-Star, a remarkable feat. The all-time scorer, all-time. I mean, what can you say? I’ve known LeBron since he was in high school. There was a lot of talk about how amazing he was. We were convinced this guy was super special. He’s been through plenty of iterations of the game, and in each era, he’s been the best. The chosen one, that’s it.”
