LeBron James has no more individual awards or achievements to reach, other than 40,000 points. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar is generally considered one of the two best players of all time, has won 4 championships with 3 different franchises, and last season became the NBA’s all-time leading scorer.
After surprisingly reaching the Western Conference Finals in 2023, it is safe to say that James is much more interested in helping the Lakers climb up the standings from 10th to the postseason than in further burnishing his aaursive personal resume. But that reality certainly won’t stop Las Vegas from capitalizing on basketball’s obsession with round numbers, sparking bets on LeBron James reaching the 40,000 career point milestone.
James finished tonight’s showdown with the Los Angeles Clippers with 39,960 points and one more win in the bag. Honestly, seeing LeBron James’ performance and that of the Washington Wizards, the contest on the night between today and tomorrow could be the one because the Californians are doing well and it is being played at Crypto.com Arena. He has to put up “only” 40.
