LeBron James has surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the NBA's all-time leader in regular-season minutes played. James achieved this milestone during the Los Angeles Lakers' 113-100 victory over the Sacramento Kings, playing 34 minutes to reach a total of 57,471 career minutes, eclipsing Abdul-Jabbar's record of 57,446. In the game, James contributed 19 points, six rebounds, and seven assists. The Lakers' win, their third in four games, was also bolstered by performances from Anthony Davis, who had 21 points and 18 rebounds, and Austin Reaves, who led the team with 25 points. This record-breaking performance comes as James continues to showcase his longevity and commitment to the game in his 22nd NBA season. The Lakers are set to play the Kings again on Saturday.
