LeBron James is redefining basketball longevity. On Tuesday night he became the first player to score 50,000 combined points in the NBA regular season and postseason, surpassing the mark with a three-pointer early in the first quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' 136-115 win over New Orleans.

James finished with 34 points against the Pelicans after toppling another milestone in his unprecedented career.
