NBA finally has a new all-time scoring champion after nearly 40 years.
LEBRON DOES THE UNTHINKABLE — Breaks Kareem’s Scoring Record in 3 Quarters!
The world was watching: Could LeBron James drop 36 points and pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s legendary scoring record?
Spoiler: He didn’t even need the fourth quarter.
With a smooth 21-foot turnaround jumper, LeBron hit 38,388 career points, officially becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer — and he did it with 10.9 seconds left in the 3rd quarter at Crypto.com Arena.
History made. Legacy sealed. Even Magic Johnson couldn’t believe it:
I never thought anyone could beat Kareem’s record.
And neither did LeBron — until recently.
Now, after 20 seasons, 3 franchises, and 19 straight years averaging 25+ PPG, the King stands alone at the top.
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver called it one of the greatest feats in all of sports:
A towering achievement… and his history is still being written.
He didn’t just break the record — he shattered every expectation.
“Out of Reach?” Not for LeBron. The King Just Shattered a Record We Thought Was Untouchable From Joe Fulks to George Mikan… Wilt. Kareem. The scoring crown seemed locked in the past.
But LeBron James just broke history — and humbled the world while doing it.
As the game paused for a jaw-dropping ceremony at center court, LeBron soaked it all in: “To stand alongside a legend like Kareem… it’s humbling beyond words.”
With emotion in his voice, he gave thanks to everyone who’s been part of his 20-year journey, from teammates to fans to the league itself.
This is bigger than a dream. I never imagined this night would be this magical. A record once seen as unbreakable has officially been dethroned — and the new king made it look effortless.
He Was Built to Dominate!” — Kareem Admits LeBron’s Greatness Was No Accident
Even the former King had to give it up.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar just dropped major respect on LeBron James, calling his 20-year reign nothing short of planned domination.
“He had the size. The skill. The impact. And the leadership people naturally follow.”
From day one in the NBA, LeBron was never just a player — he was a force. And two decades later, he’s still rewriting history.
When the legend before you says you were destined to rule… that’s legacy defined.
