LeBron James on His Favorite LEAP Players of the Season

Happy New Year from LeBron James, Steve Nash and all of us at Mind the Game! We are so psyched to kick off 2026 with an episode highlighting the players who have made major improvements this year. Guys like Tyrese Maxey and Stephon Castle to Deni Avdija and Jalen Johnson. We highlight just how those players took a leap and what LeBron and Steve look into when evaluating player development. Steve and LeBron also debate the ‘Fouling Up-3’ strategy and how to deploy it. And finally, the guys get to a fan question about defending drop coverage. It’s going to be a great year and thankful for each and every one of year. Cheers to 2026!
