Lakers’ LeBron James hits new bonkers milestone in Cleveland return

The royal return of Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James to Rocket Arena on Wednesday became even more special.

The Lakers visited the Cleveland Cavaliers, aiming for their third straight win. It was an emotional homecoming for James, who had to wipe away his tears when the Cavaliers played a video tribute for him in the first half.

But it was business as usual for the 41-year-old James when he was on the floor. He even set another milestone as he became the first player in league history to reach 60,000 career minutes in the regular season.

It is another testament to James’ unparalleled longevity, and it is quite poetic that he achieved it in his old stomping ground.

The four-time MVP is in his 23rd year, and he is still out there dropping fantastic highlights. There might not be another player who could play as long as he. Not to mention, at a high level.
