LeBron James celebrates his 40th birthday on Monday, and well wishes have begun to pour in from peers, fans and celebrities alike.

LeBron James has been one of the top players in the NBA for the majority of his basketball career. However, many expected him to fall off in his 30s. In fact, when he joined the Los Angeles Lakers, most fans believed that the King was already finished and that he only joined the team to focus on his life off the court.

When LeBron James broke another NBA record earlier this month, the one for most regular-season minutes played in a career, his Los Angeles Lakers teammates handled the moment in typical locker room fashion.
