LeBron James breaks mark for NBA games played. See his record vs. each team

LeBron James has added another NBA record to his resume.

With his appearance in the Los Angeles Lakers‘ game against the Orlando Magic March 21, the 22-time NBA All-Star broke Robert Parrish’s all-time games played record. Now, LeBron stands alone with 1,612 games played in his career.

While James has numerous iconic moments under his belt, any NBA fan can probably pinpoint one or two moments where the four-time MVP went off against their favorite team. It may not be a fond memory for them, but it’s just another example of the type of legacy James has left on the league.

But which team has James played the most games against? Has he won a game against every team in the league? Has he won a playoff game against every team in the league? Here’s a full breakdown of James’ 1,612 career games (and 292 playoff games).
