LeBron moves closer to NBA scoring record with 15,000 points
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James continues his march toward the NBA's all-time scoring record.
Details: In a game against the Utah Jazz, the Lakers' leader scored 27 points, the second-highest tally in the match. With this performance, LeBron surpassed the 15,000-point mark, becoming only the second player in NBA history to achieve this feat.
The only player ahead of him is Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. LeBron now needs 837 more points to tie Abdul-Jabbar's record of 15,837 points.
Recently, LeBron surprised his fans by temporarily stepping away from social media. The basketball legend announced his decision via a post on X.
Reminder: Recently, LeBron reached a milestone of 1,505 regular-season games in the NBA.
Last week, during the game between the Lakers and the San Antonio Spurs, James recorded his fourth consecutive triple-double for the first time in his career. However, the Lakers' leader expressed strong dissatisfaction with his performance in that game.
