Royal return Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James at 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 Jameswho had to wipe away tears when the Cavaliers played a video tribute to 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 when he became the first player in league history to reach it 60,000 career minutes in the regular season.

It’s another testament to James’ unparalleled longevity, and it’s quite poetic that he achieved it on his old home turf.

The four-time MVP is in his 23rd year, and he’s still out there with fantastic results. There may not be another player who can play as much as he does. Not to say, at a high level.

James always said he didn’t want to cheat the game. He has always treated it with respect, which is why he takes care of his body, investing in work even when no one is looking. Being a gym rat has definitely worked well for him.

Although he’s been slowed by various injuries in recent years, the NBA’s all-time leading scorer continues to have a huge impact on the Lakers. Entering their game against the Cavaliers, James was averaging 22.4 points, 6.0 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 33.4 minutes.
