If he plays long enough, LeBron James could pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most points in NBA history. Kareem scored 38,387 points during his legendary playing career.
James is arguably the most selfless superstar of all-time. The four-time MVP prefers to pass first, but that doesn't mean he can't score when he wants to.
LeBron has averaged at least 20.0 points per game in every single season of his career. He was the 2008 scoring champion as well.
The King has career averages of 27.2 points per game. That's fourth all-time, trailing only Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain and Elgin Baylor.
LeBron James has one of the most impressive NBA résumés. The former No. 1 overall pick is a 14-time All-Star, three-time NBA champion, three-time Finals MVP and has made the All-NBA team 14 times.
James had so much hype surrounding him when he came into the league back in 2003 and, somehow, he's exceeded those grand expectations.
The Lakers sure are lucky that James signed with them in free agency.
Now, the question is whether or not Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka will be able to get Anthony Davis to add to the mix.
