A remarkable LeBron James statistic demonstrates the Lakers star’s tenacity and Thunder’s promising future.

LeBron James has been the prime example of how to defy the odds to this point in his career. The 38-year-old future Hall of Famer has been in the NBA since 2003 and is still playing at an All-Star level while logging huge minutes every night. While there’s no debating his durability, one incredible stat that emerged during the Lakers’ game against the Thunder on Thursday night highlighted the fact while also acting as a tip of the cap for how bright Oklahoma City’s future is.

After running the numbers, Thunder reporter Royce Young highlighted a cool stat explaining that James has played more regular-season minutes over the span of his career than the entire 18-player Thunder roster. The breakdown gave the edge to James by a total of 54,693 to 53,853 minutes.

While this number may have changed slightly over the first month of the NBA season, heading into the year, Basketball Insiders detailed that the Thunder actually didn’t even have the youngest team in the league. Per their math, Oklahoma City checked in at No. 3 prior to the season, with an average age of 24.1.

The two teams narrowly ahead of the Thunder? The San Antonio Spurs, with an average age of 24, and the Portland Trail Blazers, who checked in at 23.9 years of age.
