Is LeBron James running out of records to chase? How his list of accomplishments keeps growing

LeBron James might be running out of records to chase. He already has gotten plenty of them: most points scored, most seasons played, most minutes played, most All-NBA selections, most All-Star selections, most field goals made, most field goals attempted, most playoff games, most playoff points, highest career earnings ... James has all those marks, and probably many more.

And that list doesn't even include ones that James' Los Angeles Lakers teammate Austin Reaves adds to the tally — highly nuanced and perhaps made-up categories like most sneakers worn and most shoestrings used. “He says a new stat every day about me,” James said. James could take outright possession of his next record Saturday night, when he's scheduled to play in his 1,612nd career regular-season game — breaking a tie with Robert Parish for the most in NBA history.

It's an obvious tribute to James' longevity. He is in his 23rd season, one more than Vince Carter's previous record. Entering Saturday, there are 79 players who have logged NBA minutes this season and weren't even born when James played his debut game in the league on Oct.

29, 2003. “It’s not like I’m like writing things down and looking at the record book and saying: ‘I’m going to get that, I’m going to get that, I’m going to get that. ’ It just kind of happened," James said.
