Those would be impressive stats even without taking into account the unbelievable strain put on LeBron’s body across 18 seasons of carrying his various teams offensively, defensively and emotionally.
And that’s to say nothing of his 38.3 minute career average, his 260 playoff games (without ever missing one), and all the drastically shortened offseasons that came with playing in 10 Finals, three Olympics and one World Cup.
Other than a groin injury which caused him to miss 17 games in 2018-19, James has never suffered a significant injury. And to top it off, he has retained an incredible amount of his athletic ability for someone who is 36 years old.
His 49,796 career minutes rank him seventh all-time and he’s just 316 minutes away from jumping into fifth place. Then he will be behind only Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Karl Malone and Kareem Adbdul Jabbar.

I would probably stop posting in threads that you don’t have a clue about.

John Stockton was more durable. Don't post false facts. Stockton only missed around 30 games in his career. Mostly in one season. He had 17 seasons where he didn't miss a single game. Keep in mind when you research the stats that 1999 was a shortened season. He played every game between the age of 36 to 41.
Malone was also more durable then Lebron.
