Basketball superstar LeBron James tied Robert Parish for the most games played in the NBA on Thursday after the Los Angeles Lakers' game against the Miami Heat, reaching 1,611 games, a record Parish held for nearly three decades.
The 41-year-old James was questionable until the last minute, but ultimately started in the game against Miami, his former team with whom he won two championships in 2012 and 2013.
Parish, a Boston Celtics legend, played 1,611 games over 21 seasons (1976-1997).
Since February 2023, James has been the NBA's all-time leading scorer, surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and also holds other records, such as most seasons played (23) and All-Star appearances (22).
On March 5th, he made history again by breaking the record for most field goal attempts, a mark he also took from Abdul-Jabbar.
