Abdul-Jabbar finished his career with 38,387 points, nearly 7,000 ahead of the nearest challenger at the time Wilt Chamberlain.
“LeBron has done it so differently to me, because LeBron is not a natural scorer,” Rivers said. “LeBron is a playmaker, and he got criticized early in his career for making the right decisions. And the fact that he’s now about to break the scoring record, it really points out to his greatness.”
James is likely to have quite a bit of time and space at the top himself. The next-closest “active” player, Carmelo Anthony , is nearly 10,000 points behind James and has not played this season . Kevin Durant is at No. 16 , but the 34-year-old’s progress has been slowed by injury in recent seasons. James Harden and Russell Westbrook have yet to crack the top 30.
