Lakers star LeBron James is still dominating at age 37. Is he really 120 games away from breaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's NBA all-time scoring record?
Lakers star LeBron James is quickly approaching Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s NBA scoring record.
Provided James stays healthy — and that’s no safe bet after ankle and abdominal injuries have already cost him time this year — he could pass Malone for No. 2 on the scoring list by the end of the season. Around 20 points a game for the next 45 games would get that done. He’ll have to avoid freak accidents, like the one that cost him 20 games last season, and some of the natural soft-tissue injuries that are likely to surface as he continues to pile up minutes and points.
Just this month, James reiterated that individual statistics are meaningless without winning, and the Lakers’ path forward for the latter could really be rocky. Yet you know James’ accomplishments aren’t lost on him.After every major milestone, James’ Instagram story becomes littered with highlights and graphics celebrating the latest achievement. It’s not lost on anyone around the Lakers, with his coach occasionally forced to just sit back in disbelief.
