LeBron James wants to continue breaking records in the NBA. Although at present he mainly aims to become the top scorer in the history of the competition (he is 828 points away), there is another mark that he could surpass in a few years, according to his partner Dennis Schroder.

“He is about to turn 38 this month, but he told me that he could continue until he is 45 years old”declared Schroder about the future retirement of King James, which, fortunately, does not seem to happen any time soon.

Why until 45?
The number that Dennis reveals from his talk with James is no coincidence. If LeBron extends his career seven more years and he will play until he is 45, would break the record as the oldest player to play a game in the NBA.
The recognition has been held for 75 years by former basketball player Nat Hickey, who served in the shooting guard position. James could top it by a matter of months, as long as it stays in place until 2030.
