LeBron James has been a one-man wrecking crew throughout his time in the NBA that spans back some 21 years. Playing so long means you can break a ton of records, but not all of them are good ones.
LeBron James opened up his 21st season knowing that a record was going to be made by him fairly soon.
When the Lakers face the Suns this Friday night, James could very well record the 5,000th turnover of his NBA career because he’s just turnover away from doing so.
The Lakers star already has the most turnovers in league history.
Kobe Bryant, Karl Malone, and Jason Kidd had over 4,000 turnovers in their respective careers, but nobody has ever hit the 5,000 mark.
The Los Angeles Lakers’ start to the season hasn’t exactly gone the way that anyone would have hoped for.

The Lakers are coming off a blowout loss to the Houston Rockets that dropped them to 0-5 on the road.
According to ESPN Stats & Information, Los Angeles is the first team in NBA history to make fewer three-pointers and shoot a lower three-point percentage than the opposition in each of its first eight games.
There may come a time when shaking things up does make sense, but it is far too early for those conversations.
