Magic Johnson = 33,245 regular season minutes + 7,538 playoff minutes = 40,783 total minutes
Larry Bird = 34,443 regular season minutes + 6,886 playoff minutes = 41,329 total minutes
LeBron James = 34,860 regular season minutes + 6,717 playoff minutes = 41,577 total minutes
I was shocked to hear LeBron has already played more career minutes than Larry Bird. 12th season for LeBron. Only just turned 30 years old recently. Amazing how much LeBron has played already at such a young age.
In another 3 and a 1/2 years, LeBron will likely be over the 50,000 mark for combined regular season + playoff minutes. Scary threshold. It'll be very interesting to see how his body holds up over next few seasons.
