TORONTO -- LeBron James ' record streak of 1,297 consecutive regular-season games with double-digit points ended Thursday night, when the NBA's career points leader was held to eight points in the Los Angeles Lakers ' 123-120 win over the Toronto Raptors .
James could have tried to win the game -- and extend the streak -- on the final possession, but he instead passed the ball to Rui Hachimura in the left corner.
Hachimura's 3-pointer dropped as time expired, and James -- who has said countless times over his 23-year career that he always tries to make the right and smartest play -- threw his hands in the air in celebration.
"Bron told me right before this, 'I got you. It's going to come to you,'" Hachimura said in an on-court televised interview.
With that, the streak ended. T
