LeBron James is a longevity monster, so far no surprise. The Los Angeles Lakers winger became the fifth player with the most games played in the NBA last night against the New Orleans Pelicans.
LeBron James played the 1505th regular season game of his NBA career last night against the New Orleans Pelicans, which is equivalent to more than 18 full seasons on the court. The result of a career of exceptional consistency both in performance and in physical integrity.
The Los Angeles Lakers player has, with this mark, become the fifth most capped man in NBA history. In front of him, Robert Parish, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Vince Carter and Dirk Nowitzki are still resisting.
Congrats to @KingJames of the @Lakers for moving into 5th all-time in GAMES PLAYED! pic.twitter.com/VkfdB49LgB

Barring injury, LeBron James will be second in the rankings at the end of this 2024-25 financial year and will overtake the legendary pivot of the Boston Celtics in the next one.
One more record to come for the most impressive 39-year-old player in Big League history.
