Olden Polynice suggests LeBron James underachieved his career potential

Former NBA center Olden Polynice stated on SiriusXM NBA Radio that LeBron James underachieved throughout his career. Polynice argued that despite James possessing the size and skill to average a triple-double during a regular season, he failed to achieve the milestone before Russell Westbrook. While acknowledging James as one of the greatest players in league history, Polynice contended that James possessed the specific physical profile to chase those statistical marks at a higher level than he did. LeBron James has never averaged a triple-double over an entire regular season across his 23-year career, though he has consistently produced triple-doubles in 22 of those seasons. His highest regular-season total for triple-doubles occurred during the 2017-18 campaign. Russell Westbrook recorded a triple-double average four times during his career, including his 2016-17 season with the Oklahoma City Thunder.
