LeBron James made history on Monday night as he set the minutes played mark, combined regular season and postseason, but suffered one of the most lopsided defeats of his career.<\/p>\n

James played in 30 minutes, scored 18 points and tallied five assists. The Lakers fell to the Philadelphia 76ers, 138-94. James has now played 66,319 minutes over the entirety of his career, surpassing fellow Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar\u2019s 66,297 minutes.<\/p>\n

“King James” downplayed the milestone number in his postgame press conference.<\/p>\n

“That doesn’t mean much to me,” he said.<\/p>\n

James was clearly frustrated with the loss and said that “a lot” needed to change about the team\u2019s performance in order to prevent another blowout like that on the road.<\/p>\n

The 76ers hit 22 3-pointers in the win. The Lakers only hit seven. Philadelphia outscored Los Angeles 40-14 in the fourth quarter, even with Joel Embiid sitting on the bench.<\/p>\n

The Lakers fell to 10-8 with the loss and moved to 1-1 on their current road trip which started against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday in a 121-115 win. Los Angeles heads to Detroit to play the Pistons on Wednesday and then wraps it up against the Thunder in Oklahoma City on Thursday.<\/p>\n
