Today NBA star O'Neal talked about James' long career on the famous actor and host Rob Lowe's podcast "Literally! with Rob Lowe".

Moderator: Regarding LeBron James, although he is already a legend, his durability and physical condition are still surprising. Do you know why?

O'Neal: A very important reason why James is able to maintain such an excellent state is that modern basketball games involve less physical confrontation and more about running and jumping. Of course he does a really good job of staying in shape and he's very disciplined.
