The words “greatness” and “LeBron James” go hand in hand. He is on the verge of passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the all-time scoring list. But this is just another milestone for LeBron James, and his main objective still remains to win another championship.
One fan approached him during the game against the Detroit Pistons and asked him about his feelings about breaking the record. To the question, “Will you cry if you break the scoring record?” he replied, “If we win a championship, I’ll cry.”
LeBron James scored 35 points to lead his team to victory. This brings him closer to Kareem’s record, which he hopes to break before the All-Star break. When the unavoidable occurs, fans rejoice because it is the first time in their lives that someone has come close to breaking the so-called untouchable scoring record.
Along with numerous scoring records, including being the only player in NBA history to rank in the top 20 in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks, as well as the only player to average at least 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists per game in the regular season for at least 15 seasons. In the following games, LeBron James will look to break another and possibly the greatest record in NBA history.
LeBron James is 158 points away from rewriting history
LeBron James is 158 points shy of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s career NBA high of 38,387 points entering Saturday’s away game against the Boston Celtics. In case Bron maintains his current pace, he will need to play in six more games to surpass Abdul-Jabbar.
Only if he doesn’t miss any games, the King is expected to surpass Abdul-Jabbar when the Lakers play the Oklahoma City Thunder on February 7 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. LeBron is averaging 29.9 points per game this season.
The King is on pace to break Kareem’s record in fewer games and with a higher career scoring average. In 1,405 games played over the course of his 20-year career, James has a 27.2 scoring average. Abdul-Jabbar averaged 24.6 points in 1,560 games with the Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks over a 20-year career.
Because of his early start and ability to make three-point shots, LeBron has a significant advantage over Abdul-Jabbar. After four seasons at UCLA, Abdul-Jabbar made his NBA debut in 1969 at the age of 22. Bron entered the NBA straight out of high school in 2003, making his debut at the age of 18.
