LeBron James has obviously accomplished quite a bit during his NBA career. The future Hall of Famer is a four-time NBA champion, a four-time NBA Finals MVP, a four-time NBA MVP, a 17-time All-Star, a three-time All-Star Game MVP, a 16-time All-NBA selection, a six-time All-Defensive selection, a one-time scoring champ, and a one-time assists leader.

James currently ranks third in league history in regular-season points, eighth in assists, 46th in rebounds, and has averaged 27.0 points, 7.4 assists, and 7.4 rebounds over the course of his career.

Sure, this means absolutely nothing in terms of his overall career but seeing as James has averaged 27-7-7 for more than 15 years, it’s simply mind-boggling that he’s never actually recorded that particular stat line, isn’t it?
