He also had the most first-quarter points in NBA history for a debut — 14. LeBron had 12. To be mentioned with LeBron in game one… what does that mean? How do you process that? VJ Edgecombe: It’s amazing. I must say it’s amazing. But, you know, hopefully — man, God willing — I’ve got a long career ahead of me. That’s what matters most: longevity. Knowing LeBron’s been there for 20+ years… I’m hoping I can do that one day. Just putting in the work. It feels great to have my name mentioned with LeBron’s, but credit to Bron and credit to my teammates for passing me the ball.
