LeBron James broke the record for the most minutes played in NBA history as he helped the LA Lakers beat the Sacramento Kings.
The 39-year-old surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar when he completed his 57,447th minute in the 113-100 win on Thursday night.
James scored 19 points while team-mate Austin led with 25 points. He surpassed Abdul-Jabbar for the most points scored earlier this year.
“It’s just a commitment to the craft and to the passion and love I have for the game,” said James.
“I don’t take much time in the off-season, a little bit more time now.”
