"I just think it's just a commitment to the craft and to the passion and love I have for the game," James said about his achievement - one in which he has spent more than 957 hours playing in professional basketball games.
"I'm just not a guy that likes to sit games if I'm somewhat healthy. It definitely wears on you... It is tough, but I understand that it is necessary at times."
Despite a slow shooting night, Anthony Davis dominated with 21 points, four assists and season highs of 18 rebounds and six blocked shots.
James ended the game at 57,471 career minutes after playing 34 minutes, cementing his legacy further by breaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's previous record of 57,446 minutes.
