LeBron James of the LA Lakers.

LeBron James turned 38 years old on Friday and put on a show against the Atlanta Hawks. James continued to defy Father Time by scoring a season-high 47 points to lift the LA Lakers to a nine-point victory.

"The King" also nearly had a triple-double with 10 rebounds and nine assists. James played 40 minutes and was simply unstoppable. The game came close in the fourth quarter, but the Lakers finished the game strong.

It was a treat for those who watched James explode on his birthday. But what is the LA Lakers' superstar secret to longevity?

"Making sure my body stays fresh, but my mind more importantly," James said after the game. "As long as I keep my mind fresh, then my body will follow what it may. It's always good to come out here with my teammates. They worked their butts off tonight.

"After starting 1-for-5, I didn't know what was going to happen. But just going out there and playing with my teammates, it's been a decent road trip. ... We want to finish it off the right way."

The LA Lakers improved to 2-2 on their current road trip, with wins over the Atlanta Hawks and Orlando Magic. They will finish it off against the Charlotte Hornets on Monday.
