The record
LeBron James has no court record of his own in this file. What exists on paper is a 23-season NBA career documented by the league and its teams, a public school his foundation co-founded in Akron, and an ownership stake in the group behind the Boston Red Sox and Liverpool FC.
The league's numbers are the core of it. He was the first pick of the 2003 draft, won four championships with three franchises and was Finals MVP each time, and in February 2023 passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the NBA's career scoring leader.
After eight seasons with the Lakers, the longest stretch he spent with any team, he signed with the Philadelphia 76ers in July 2026 and entered his 24th season at 41. The 76ers did not disclose the contract terms and listed him as the league's career leader in points and field goals.
