LeBron Moves Up to 8th Place for Most Games Played in NBA History, Surpassing Kevin Willis

LeBron James made NBA history in Monday’s game.

On Monday evening, the Los Angeles Lakers are hosting the Orlando Magic in California.

They are on the second night of a back-to-back after losing to the Sacramento Kings by a score of 132-127 in overtime.

Against the Magic, LeBron James is playing in his 1,425th career game, which passes Kevin Willis for eighth on the all-time regular season games played list.

The next player for James to pass will be Kevin Garnett (1,462).

Through the first three games of the season, the Lakers have gone 1-2, and James has averages of 23.0 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 1.0 steals per contest while shooting 57.1% from the field.

He is in his 21st season in the NBA (his sixth with the Lakers), and at 38, the 19-time All-Star still remains among the best players in the league.

Last season, James averaged a fantastic 28.9 points, 8.3 rebounds and 6.8 assists per contest while shooting 50.0% from the field and 32.1% from the three-point range.

Following the Magic, the Lakers will play their next game on Wednesday evening against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Last season, the Lakers were the seventh seed in the Western Conference with a 43-39 record.

They made the Conference Finals but were swept by Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets.

James has led the Lakers to the NBA playoffs three times, and they won the 2020 NBA Championship over the Miami Heat.
