LeBron James is steadily advancing toward the NBA’s all-time scoring record. In a recent game against the Utah Jazz, the Lakers star scored 27 points, the second-highest in the match, surpassing the 15,000-point mark. This achievement makes LeBron just the second player in NBA history to reach this milestone.
The only player ahead of him is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, with LeBron now needing 837 more points to tie Abdul-Jabbar’s record of 15,837 points.
In other news, LeBron made headlines by temporarily stepping away from social media, a decision he shared in a post on X.
Reminder: LeBron recently reached the milestone of 1,505 regular-season NBA games.
Also, last week, during the Lakers’ game against the San Antonio Spurs, James recorded his fourth consecutive triple-double, a first for his career. However, the Lakers leader expressed dissatisfaction with his performance in that game.
