Like, that's not up t o me, that's not up to anybody else in the locker room. So I'm big on believing what I can control. But yeah, it's LeBron Jame...

"I've never been sorry at basketball. I've been good ever since I started playing," LeBron James confidently said after a historic triple-double in the win over Dallas on Thursday. At an age when many predicted he would be enjoying the beauty of family time, the four-time NBA champion continues to rewrite history.

But this time, he added a new perspective to his retirement stance. In Thursday's win over the Mavs, James recorded 28 points, 12 assists, and 10 rebounds, becoming the oldest player in NBA history with a triple-double. He broke Karl Malone's 22-year-old record.

LeBron James keeps finding ways to make NBA history 23 years into his career, this time becoming the oldest player ever to record a triple-double in a game to lead the Los Angeles Lakers to a 124-104 win over the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday. Speaking to reporters after the game, James had a reflective tone when talking about his 28-point, 12-rebound, 10-rebound performance. "I'm more appreciative of moments like this in my career, understanding where I'm at," said James. "I'm at the later stage of my journey, so definitely taking it in a little bit more." The Lakers are still playing without Luka Dončić due to a hamstring injury. Austin Reaves remains on a minutes restriction as he works his way back into peak condition following a calf injury. This has put more of an onus on James to carry the burden for Los Angeles recently. He's been more than up to the task, averaging 21.8 points, 10.5 assists and 6.8 rebounds per game in his last four st...
