His name in golden letters in the history of the NBA was written in the early hours of the morning LeBron James!
Just before the end of the third period game against the Thunder at Crypto.com Arena, the Lakers star with a fadeaway shot became the leading scorer in NBA history, surpassing the great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
LeBron broke the barrier of 38,387 which he owned since April 5, 1984 the legend of the Bucks and the Lakers, who was on the court to watch the effort of the “king”, who did not hide his emotion during the stoppage of the game for this special personal moment of his.
A lifetime of work leading to this moment.
