Seventeen years into his career, LeBron James is still finding new goals to accomplish.

When the Lakers' regular season came to a close on Thursday, James sealed his spot as the league's assist-leader for the 2019-20 campaign, averaging 10.2 assists per game.

While always known as one of the best passing players in the NBA, it was the first time James cleared double-digit assists for an entire year, and the first time he led the league in the statistic.
