Will LeBron James Keep His Impressive Scoring Streak in the NBA?

An analysis of LeBron James's ongoing scoring streak and the current betting odds for his performance this season.

LeBron James has recorded the highest points in both NBA regular-season and postseason history. But are those his most noteworthy records?

There’s a unique scoring achievement he currently holds: scoring 10 or more points in 1,264 consecutive games and counting.

Let’s examine the odds of James maintaining this streak for the current season at FanDuel Sportsbook as of January 29.

LeBron James to Score 10+ Points in All Games This Season
Yes: -700 (bet $10 to win $11.43 total)
No: +430 (bet $10 to win $53 total)

For context, second on the consecutive games list is Michael Jordan, who scored 10-plus points in 866 games straight. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar follows with 787 consecutive games.

From January 2007 to January 2025, James has not scored fewer than ten points in any game except for one—on January 5, 2007. That game was with the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Milwaukee Bucks, where he managed to score only eight points.

During that game, teammates Drew Gooden and Larry Hughes combined for 53 points. Since then, James has tallied exactly 10 points on seven occasions.

This season, his scores include 10, 11, and 12 points, all losses for the Lakers. As of January 29, James averages 23.8 points with a shooting percentage of 51.3%. Remarkably, he has never averaged under 20 points per season and is in his 14th season maintaining above 50% shooting from the field.
