Everything LeBron James Said After Making NBA History, Passing Jason Kidd on All-Time Assists List

Timothy RappNov 15, 2026

Another day, another LeBron James milestone.

The Philadelphia 76ers superstar notched 11 assists on Sunday in a 131-124 win over the Indiana Pacers, bringing his career total to 12,092 and surpassing Jason Kidd for the third most in NBA history. Not too shabby for the player who also has the most points in league history.

"It's super humbling. It's something that I didn't obviously foresee in my career," James told reporters after the victory. "But I knew assists meant a lot to me. Just the movement of the ball, being able to find my teammates and put the ball on time and on target."

James, 41, has always been an elite playmaker, but he's leaned heavily into the role in Philadelphia given the other offensive talent on the team. And while there were some questions about how James, Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and Jaylen Brown would all mesh despite just one basketball out on the court, the team has raced out to an 11-3 start.

And that is due, in part, to James' elite playmaking.
