LeBron James failed to register 10 points in a regular-season game for the first time since a Jan. 5, 2007 contest.

And it ended in the most LeBron James-possible fashion. With the score tied at 120 and the final seconds ticking down, Austin Reaves, who finished the game with 44 points, tried to create an opening for a game-winner.

Ever since LeBron James was cleared to play after dealing with a sciatica injury, he hasn’t played at his usual standards. Through five games this season so far, he’s averaging career lows nearly across the board with 15-4-7 splits.

LeBron James' record streak of 1,297 consecutive regular-season games with double-digit points ended Thursday night, when the NBA's career points leader was held to eight points in the Los Angeles Lakers' 123-120 win over the Toronto Raptors.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James sacrificed a historic scoring streak in order to get a win over the Raptors.

For the first time in his career, LeBron James is playing on the final year of his contract with no player or team option for next season. And now in his 23rd NBA season, many wonder if his eighth season with the Los Angeles Lakers will be his last with the franchise and in his career overall.

LeBron James used a cross-sport analogy to explain how the Phoenix Suns snapped the Los Angeles Lakers' seven-game winning streak on Monday night.

Head coach JJ Redick revealed that the plan is for James to play in back-to-backs at some point this season, but the team will take a cautious approach given his age and injury history. The best version of the Lakers includes a healthy LeBron, so keeping him upright and fresh will be key to competing in a tough Western Conference.
