Magic Johnson Clears Stance in Michael Jordan vs LeBron James Debate at Dodgers Event

The GOAT debate has echoed through generations, from barbershops to broadcast studios. This week, it found its stage at a Dodgers event, where Magic Johnson, one of the game’s most celebrated figures, gave his verdict. With LeBron James still active and Michael Jordan immortalized in lore, Magic’s choice carried weight not just as a Hall of Famer, but as a voice deeply tied to the Lakers’ legacy.

He didn’t hedge, though he spoke with reverence for the greats. There was a sense this would not be a diplomatic answer, but one grounded in the eras he had witnessed firsthand. “I would have to say, Michael,” Magic said, laying the foundation of his stance before even mentioning the other legends.

“We haven’t seen anybody do the things that Michael could do. And he was physically so gifted at the same time, smart,” he explained, before adding, “Then I think that we have two other Lakers following him right after that. And that would be LeBron and Kareem… you got to throw Bill Russell in there because 11 championships, you can’t deny that.”
