LeBron James surpasses Kareem Abdul Jabbar in all-time scoring list
To not mislead, this leaderboard includes both the regular season and the playoffs. Abdul-Jabbar is still the NBA’s all-time leading scorer in the regular season. Still, for the Lakers star to become the all-time scorer in this facet is amazing in it is own right.
LeBron James being the all-time leader in this category is a testament to his excellence over the years. Scoring this many points means that he has played a very long time and, moreover, routinely make deep postseason runs. The Lakers star will eventually catch up to Abdul-Jabbar in the regular-season leaderboard, but he’ll make do with this for now.

Managing to just cling onto the play-in tournaments, King James has been able to register an average of more than 29 points per game. Now, with the trade deadline also passing by, will the purple and gold army be able to turn the table around as they have one of the most difficult schedules remaining?
