American basketball player LeBron James is officially listed as a forward. However, James is an extremely versatile player, and he has played virtually every position during his career. His position was often called “point forward” during his later career because he would commonly bring the ball up the court (a job traditionally reserved for a point guard) and direct the offense. He has also at times played as a center, especially on the Los Angeles Lakers during the early 2020s when true center Anthony Davis was absent because of injury.
