The Los Angeles Lakers star played his first game of the season last night against the Utah Jazz, becoming the player with the longest career in NBA history.
James had missed the Lakers’ first 14 games of the season due to a sciatic nerve issue, but his return to the court was a successful one. The Lakers secured a convincing 140–126 victory, while the 39-year-old veteran sent a clear message that he remains a dominant force in the NBA.
In less than 30 minutes of play, James scored 11 points and dished out 12 assists, signaling that his ambitions for this season are high.
Meanwhile, his phenomenal streak of consecutive games with at least 10 points, which began on January 6, 2007, continues to grow. With the game against the Utah Jazz, he extends this historic NBA record to 1,293 straight appearances.
LeBron James continues to push the boundaries of athletic longevity, remaining a symbol of resilience and elite performance in the world of basketball.
