Connor Bedard, the Chicago Blackhawks’ young phenom, took a moment to reflect on a different kind of generational talent: NBA legend LeBron James.

Speaking about James’ unmatched consistency over two decades in a clip part of TNT’s “NHL Road to the Winter Classic,” Bedard couldn’t hide his amazement at what “King James” has achieved in the NBA.

“LeBron has played for 21 years. Guess how many games under 10 points he has,” Bedard said. “Seven?” someone answered.

“In 21 years. Isn’t that the craziest stat!?” Bedard replied. “This guy, man. This guy, LeBron. He’s him.”

Although Bedard’s question was wrongly answered (LeBron has eight, not seven, regular-season games with fewer than 10 points), it’s fair to echo the youngster’s labeling of it as the “craziest stat.”

James’ unique ability to sustain an elite level of play across two decades has few parallels, even in hockey, where legends like Alex Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby remain dominant after nearly 20 seasons.

LeBron hasn’t had a regular-season game of fewer than 10 points since the 2006-07 season, and the last time he failed to score 10 points in a postseason matchup happened a decade ago in the 2013-14 playoffs.

For Bedard, who has 19 points in his second NHL season, the focus isn’t just about making an impact early but about crafting himself a decades-long productive career such as LeBron’s done.

“LeBron’s consistency and his ability to keep evolving—it’s what any athlete would want to replicate,” Bedard said.

Bedard (currently sitting at 94 regular-season games played) will cross the 100-game barrier later this month if he appears in six more games in the Blackhawks’ schedule for the remainder of the calendar year.

Meanwhile, LeBron played his 1,514th regular-season game on Wednesday in a 93-134 loss to the Miami Heat.
