The Cleveland Cavaliers may have lost the game, but at least LeBron James had something to celebrate. In a losing effort to the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday night, James became the youngest player in NBA history to score 30,000 points.
Overall, James is now the seventh player to score 30,000 points in their career. Of the other six players on the list, four of them — Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Kobe Bryant, and Wilt Chamberlain – are former Lakers.
Although he missed another game, rookie point guard Lonzo Ball, who named James as his favorite player growing up, took a moment with Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN to congratulate James and recall some of his favorite plays prior to the Lakers facing off against the Boston Celtics
Lonzo Ball congratulates LeBron James and talks about what makes LeBron great, his favorite LeBron moments growing up.
