LeBron James delivered a stellar performance in Saturday’s Game 1 win against the Rockets, tallying 19 points, eight rebounds, and 13 assists. By doing so, he surpassed John Stockton as the oldest player to record at least 10 assists in a playoff game. With key players like Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves uncertain for future games due to injuries, James’s role as a primary playmaker becomes even more crucial for the team’s ongoing playoff success.
