The data seems to suggest that forwards peak and plateau from 23-25 before gradually declining. On top of usually being on more team friendly deals, that's probably where the sweet spot is of making the most of a player's most productive years.
Lots of other things to consider (becoming more rounded, basic data, more analysis) before any definitive can be said.

Correct.
Points-wise, prime for forwards is 23-27. But for overall ability, and being a complete player, it's more like 25-30.

I get the reference, with respect to points, to to suggest he will be 'past his prime' as early as next year... come on.
