Mbappe, at 24 years old, has been nominated for the first time for the Best award while LeBron, at that age, was doing this

The PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe has already won a World Cup and lost the final for almost getting the back-to-back championship, but he is calling on the last three nominees for this year's The Best award.

Mbappe shares the nomination with Karim Benzema and Leonel Messi; the three deserve to win, but the reality is that Benzema or Messi are closer to getting the award than Mbappe, who only won with his team in the French league tournament.

Benzema led Real Madrid to win the Champions League and Leo Messi defeated Mbappe to win for the first time in his career the World Cup. Mbappe is 24 years old and already has an outstanding career, but in the NBA, his favorite player LeBron James was doing a little different.

The new Lakers superstar, at 24 years old, was already considered to be a great player, and even when he didn't win an NBA championship yet, as he did in 2012, he won a gold medal with the U.S. Olympic "Redeem" team and got his 5th All-Star game and won his first MVP award.

Mbappe and LeBron James have met already

Mbappe hasn't hidden his love for the NBA and has even flown to the U.S. to watch some live games and meet his Lakers idol, LeBron James. Now that James passed the scoring record, the PSG player reacted by calling him GOAT. LeBron responded to his three goals in the world cup final vs. Argentina.
