The Minnesota Timberwolves have the Los Angeles Lakers on the brink of elimination in the 2025 NBA playoffs. The Timberwolves are up 3-1 in the best-of-seven first-round series after a thrilling Game 4 win on Sunday afternoon in Minnesota.

As the NBA's announcement indicated, James has broken his tie with the great Wilt Chamberlain on the esteemed list. The four-time MVP is now sitting at the No. 3 spot alone, with his sights set on another Lakers icon, Magic Johnson, who currently has 13 more career playoff double-doubles over James.
