NBA regular season records


This article lists all-time records achieved in the NBA regular season in major statistical categories recognized by the league, including those set by teams and individuals in a game, season, and career. The NBA also recognizes records from its original incarnation, the Basketball Association of America.

Individual game records

In 2006, the NBA introduced age requirement restrictions. Prospective high school players must wait a year before entering the NBA, making age-related records harder to break.
Note: Other than the longest game and disqualifications in a game, all records in this section are since the 24-second shot clock was instituted for season onward.
