The NBA’s 79th season is right around the corner with the Oct. 22 opening night tip-off less than seven weeks away!

We’re anticipating another historic season full of big moments, eye-catching plays and — most importantly — milestones and records surpassed.

LeBron James enters his 22nd season as the oldest active NBA player. He could be joined by his son, Bronny James, which would mark the first time a father-son duo shared the floor as teammates in NBA history.

James is also chasing another scoring record — trying to become the first player to hit 50,000 career points.

And, after a stupefying Olympics debut, Stephen Curry will look to extend his lead on the all-time 3-point leaderboard in his 16th season in the Bay.

From Nikola Jokic’s amazing triple-doubles to Kevin Durant’s climb up the all-time scoring list, here are some of the biggest milestones to keep an eye on for the 2024-25 NBA season.

James proved throughout his illustrious career that there are few records and milestones that he cannot attain.

The Los Angeles Lakers superstar is already making history entering his 22nd season in the league, tying Vince Carter for most in NBA history.

James is no stranger to the pressure of the pros, entering the league when he was just 18 years old.

On his birthday on Dec. 30, James will also become the first player to play in the NBA as both a teenager and a 40-year-old.
