The Los Angeles Lakers have become a different beast since Luka Doncic joined the franchise. Apart from the Slovenian guard’s decent performances, Lakers superstar LeBron James has played a pivotal role in the team’s success. The four-time NBA champion continues to register considerable numbers in his 22nd season, sparking various comparisons in the league.

LeBron James and the Lakers faced the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night and comfortably extended their winning streak to seven games. James registered 34 points, eight rebounds, and six assists, marking his 1,001st regular-season victory. During the game, his career stats were compared with the entire New Orleans Pelicans franchise, and the result left fans stunned.

While LeBron has played 22 NBA seasons, the Pelicans were established in the 2002-03 season. In the regular season, the Lakers forward has 1,000 wins, while the Pelicans have won 848 games. The difference is huge between their playoff wins, as James has 183 victories while New Orleans won just 22 games.

The 40-year-old’s hard work on both ends of the court hasn’t gone unnoticed, as he was named the Player of the Month for February. James keeps rewriting the record book this season, and his longevity never fails to amaze fans.

LeBron James vs. New Orleans Pelicans Stat Line Has Social Media Divided

The wild stat comparison between the record 21-time NBA All-Star and an NBA franchise impressed many fans. While some called LeBron the greatest to ever play the game, others took shots at his haters.

On the other hand, some NBA fans criticized the comparison, presenting various arguments to support their stance.

LeBron James’ stats comparison with former players and legends is common, but stacking them up against an NBA franchise is mind-blowing. The Lakers will next host the New York Knicks on Thursday and will look to register their 40th win this season.
