LeBron James is apparently a force to be reckoned with in the Madden world.

On a recent episode of the "Join the Lobby" podcast, teammate Anthony Davis discussed how he and James would play Madden together during their time inside the NBA bubble in Orlando, with James often coming out on the losing end. This led James to start honing his Madden skills more and, according to Davis, the Los Angeles Lakers star now ranks among the top 1,000 players in the world.

"It made him to the point where he's like, 'I'm locking back in,'" Davis said. "And when I say he locked back in, from that time in the bubble till right now - I think now he's maybe top 1,000 in the world now - I know, late in the season, he told us he beat the 164th best player in the world, I think.

"But he'll play 15 games a day, 20 games."

James celebrated a milestone in Madden earlier this year, earning his 500th win in the video game.

As for Davis, he seems to be more into Call of Duty these days and occasionally live streams himself playing the game.
