IT TOOK ALL the way until midway through the third quarter on Nov. 18 for LeBron James -- already the first player ever to suit up for a 23rd season -- to make sure he kept another historic streak intact.
James, standing on the right side of the court by the Crypto.com Arena logo, passed the ball to Luka Doncic, who was positioned on the perimeter to his left. Once James released the ball, Austin Reaves sprung up from the paint to the 3-point line to set a back screen on Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen, who was guarding the Lakers star.
