LOS ANGELES, CA (SNN-TV) – LeBron James is on track to make NBA history this week.
James should pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and become the league’s all-time scoring leader either tonight against the Oklahoma City Thunder or on Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks.
James enters tonight’s game just 36 points shy of passing Abdul-Jabbar — who scored 38,387 points in his career. The record was set in April 1984, eight months before James was even born.
James has averaged 30 points, 8.5 rebounds and 7 assists per game this season, which is one of the best stat lines of his two-decade long career.
