Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James’ photographic memory is one of the abilities that has made James nearly invincible on the basketball court. The King shared what it’s like to have such an ability, via Melissa Rohlin of Sports Illustrated:

“Man, how did you remember that play? Or how did you remember that? It was so long ago. I never thought about it. I didn’t even know what photographic memory meant when I was younger until I got older. It’s something that I was born with or blessed with. Some of the areas of my life that I had when I was younger, I try to forget about. At the same time, some of the things that I went through when I was younger, I also keep because it made me who I am today. I can remember a lot of things.”
