It’s only a matter of time until LeBron James officially breaks the all-time NBA scoring record that Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has been holding since 1989. LeBron is currently 37 points away from doing so and is expected to surpass Abdul-Jabbar either against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday, or possibly more fittingly against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday.
There’s a lot of excitement and chatters going on among NBA circles as LeBron moves closer to the all-time scoring record. Even Kareem once tweeted that he’d be glad to congratulate the 38-year old Lakers superstar when the time finally comes.
However, Kareem has often criticized James for different things, such as LeBron’s stance on the Covid-19 vaccine an as well as his silence when it comes to criticizing China for its wrongdoings.
This is why it may come as a surprise to many that Abdul-Jabbar will be in attendance at Crypto.com Arena when LeBron James breaks his all-time record.
Billy Mac notes during the @SpectrumSN broadcast that Kareem will be in the building when LeBron is paced to break his all-time scoring record, whether this Tuesday or Thursday. AK
