The five active football stars who can play until the age of 40: Zhan Huangkuli is nominated, and the top player must retire at least 50 years old!

As is well known, most basketball players retire around the age of 35, and their career generally does not exceed fifteen years, because as they age, various factors such as injuries and declining athletic abilities will follow, which is also unavoidable for any player. In the long history of the NBA, it is rare to see players who can retire at the age of 40, even talented players like Jordan and Kobe have not been able to do so. So let's talk about the five players in the NBA who may play until the age of 40 today.

Harden

As one of the most outstanding scorers in the league today, Harden has won the title of points king for three consecutive years, and also played an epic performance with an average of 36.1 points per game in the 2018 season. His scoring ability is no less than that of his predecessors, Jordan and Kobe. However, what sets Harden apart is that he is not known for his flying and evading gameplay, but rather for his "floor flow". In addition to possessing an almost unsolvable three-point backstep trick, his excellent rhythm change and ability to create fouls are also the secrets to his high scores. Therefore, according to Harden's playing style, it is not impossible to retire at the age of 40.

Curry

Curry's emergence undoubtedly changed the modern basketball game style, and also brought three championship trophies to the Warriors, setting a record of 73 wins in history. As a historic pitcher, Curry has performed exceptionally well both with and without the ball. Under such circumstances, even towards the end of his career, he can still perform strongly, so he has a great chance of retiring at the age of 40.

Paul

Although Paul is not particularly skilled in offense, he possesses a top-notch perspective and passing ability, and is definitely at the master level in controlling the pace of the game. In addition, Paul also has strong muscle strength and core strength, which allows him to face off against the giants on the NBA field without any loss. Therefore, as long as Paul is willing, playing until the age of 40 is not a problem at all.

James

Although James is 36 years old, there is no sign of decline in him, and his athletic form is still at the top of the league. Of course, the reason why James can maintain such excellent form is closely related to his decades of arduous training and dietary habits, which is also the key to his ability to become a great player. From the current situation, as long as there are no accidents, it is almost certain that James will reach the age of 40.

Wiggins

In terms of physical talent alone, Wiggins is definitely not inferior to any of the above people. However, his playing style has been criticized by many media and fans, who believe that he did not give his all in the game and was completely wasting his talent, so he has also been nicknamed "Goji Brother". Many netizens joked that if Wiggins continued to play like this, retiring at the age of 50 would not be a problem.
