The NBA doesn't really show the "Games Started" statistic until after the 1981 season, so statistics for this are difficult to determine. However there are only a couple of players who played 20 seasons, and only one who played 21. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played for 20 seasons and started almost every game during those seasons. Therefore he would qualify if the question is '20 seasons or more'. If the qualification is 'more than 20 seasons' (21 or more), then there is only 1 player: Robert Parish. Parish played 21 seasons, and had 3 games as a starter (his fewest) in 1996-97 with the Chicago Bulls. He won his 4th championship with the Bulls.
Robert Parish was 43 years old when he played for the Chicago bulls
