LeBron James expanded his NBA legacy by becoming the first player to score 39,000 points in the world’s best game of basketball. The Lakers star, who surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387 points) to become the NBA’s all-time scoring leader last March, needed five points against the Jazz to reach 39,000 points.
LeBron, who is about to turn 39, set a new scoring record with 17 points in the Lakers’ (131-99) victory over the Utah Jazz. Points that seem unattainable in the future for any player. To understand what reaching 39,000 points means, just point out that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scored 38,387 points, Karl Malone (36,928), Kobe Bryant (33,643) and Michael · Jordan (32,292) is enough.
“King James'” successful career includes four milestones such as his four NBA championships (2012, 2013, 2016, 2020) and four regular season MVPs (2009, 2010, 2012 and year 2013). The player closest to LeBron currently is Kevin Durant, with 27,300 points. As long as the Suns star keeps averaging 2,238 points per season, it will take him another six years to catch King James.
“I haven’t had a chance to think deeply about what that means, but it’s always good,” LeBron James explained after reaching a new milestone with the Lakers.
