Every time LeBron James steps on an NBA court, he sets a new record and this time, it’s no different. A milestone which is particularly meaningful, King James has crossed Derek Fisher’s record to become the player to win the most playoffs in NBA history.
Holding 162 individual playoff wins in his career, just at 25, King James also holds additional records for most points, field goals, free throws, steals and minutes in postseason history. Adding cherry on top, he is also third in assists and games played as well as sixth in rebounds.
This milestone was achieved after James’ team, Los Angeles Lakers defeated Houston Rockets, 112-102 to take a 2-1 series lead. Post winning, LeBron stated that all these wins are dedicated to his Lakers teammate and late Kobe Bryant. His consistency and longevity is a rarity in NBA history making him one of the best in the game of basketball.
