One day, the NBA record books will be safe from LeBron James. But not Thursday.
The Los Angeles Lakers star recorded 28 points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds in a 124-104 win over the Dallas Mavericks, making him the oldest player in NBA history to record a triple-double at 41 years and 44 days. Karl Malone was the previous record-holder at 40 years and 127 days.
It was also James first triple-double since Feb. 1, 2025, breaking the longest drought of his career.
