As the Golden State Warriors head into the 2025-26 season, much is at stake regarding their current two-year championship window with their veteran core.

Yet, their pursuit of another championship will begin against an organization in a very different situation, the Los Angeles Lakers, as Lebron James will set the record for most NBA seasons played on the very first night of the season.

Lakers forward LeBron James is scheduled to begin his 23rd NBA season on opening night.

He is set to pass Vince Carter for the most seasons played in league history.
