LeBron James snaps historic scoring streak in win

A historic run of offensive consistency came to an end on Thursday, as LeBron James finished with just eight points on 4-of-17 shooting in the Lakers' win over the Raptors. This marked the first time since 2007—spanning 1,297 consecutive games—that the superstar failed to reach double-digit points. Despite the shooting woes, he impacted the game as a facilitator, dishing out 11 assists and six rebounds while setting up the game-winning three-pointer at the buzzer.

Fantasy Impact:

Volume was not the problem for James, who attempted the second-most shots on the team, but he struggled to convert throughout the night. This performance follows a 10-point outing in his previous game against the Suns, indicating a slight scoring funk. He will look to bounce back immediately when the Lakers visit the Celtics on Friday.
