James, 39, will start for Team West alongside Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Luka Doncic, Kevin Durant, and Nikola Jokic during the 2024 NBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis, Indiana.
He received 5,098,872 fans votes, the most among Western Conference players — making him the team’s captain.
Only Milwaukee Bucks star and Team East captain Giannis Antetokounmpo garnered more fan votes (5,427,874) than the four-time NBA champion.
James was touched by the All-Star voting results, which were revealed on Thursday night.
“I give credit and a lot of respect to my fans who have been along with me through this whole 21-year journey,” he said after the Lakers’ 141-132 over the Chicago Bulls, via ESPN.
“And voting me in as an All-Star starter for the 20th-consecutive time, just very humbled.
“Very blessed to be able to do what I love to do and just try to give back, give back to the game that’s given me over two decades.
” So, to be able to know this is the first time ever in NBA history to have this many All-Star starts or whatever the case might be, it’s very cool.”
LeBron added: “I’ve exceeded anything that I ever dreamed about being in the NBA. And I did that a long time ago.
“Everything else is just kind of extra credit. I’m very humbled by still being able to play the game I love and have these accomplishments along the way.”
“Greatest ever to do it,” one wrote.
“Something Jordan couldn’t do,” another added.
“Great achievement. His longevity is unreal. King James!” a third said.
James has earned an All-Star nod in all but his rookie season.
He averages 24.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 1.3 steals over 41 games in 2023-24.
