LeBron James’ incredible run of 1,297 regular-season NBA games scoring 10 or more points ended as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Toronto Raptors 123-120.<\/b><\/p>\n
James, 40, scored eight points against the Raptors and handed out 11 assists, including the pass for Rui Hachimura to score the buzzer-beating game-winner.<\/p>\n
“Just playing the game the right way,” said James, who is in his unprecedented 23rd season. <\/p>\n
“Always make the right play. That’s how I was taught the game.”<\/p>\n
James last failed to score in double digits in January 2007, breaking Michael Jordan’s previous record by 431 games.<\/p>\n
James struggled with his shot for much of the night, connecting on just four of 17 and missing all five of his three-point attempts.<\/p>\n
With the NBA’s leading scorer Luka Doncic absent for personal reasons, Austin Reaves delivered a double-double of 44 points and 10 assists for the Lakers.<\/p>\n
In March, James became the first player to score 50,000 points in NBA regular season and play-off matches.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
