On February 27, 2008, against his primary rival, the Boston Celtics, LeBron James reached 10,000 points in his NBA career
3.625 days later, King James, aged 33, reached 30,000 career points after sinking a left-wing jumper against the San Antonio Spurs.
Despite their many clashes over the years, head coach Greg Popovich was ready to applaud the Cleveland Cavaliers player.
Fast forward more than six years to March 2, 2024, during a game versus the Denver Nuggets.
The four-time MVP became the first player in league history to score 40,000 points, a dream accomplishment that occurred 388 days after James eclipsed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the most points in NBA history.
The Los Angeles Lakers' star has defied the laws of longevity beyond explanation.
He's a one-of-a-kind athlete, a basketball android sent to Earth to break records and set them so far ahead that even the thought of them being broken is ridiculous.
While James does rely on his physical ability on the court at times, he has refined his game to the point where he shot a career-high 41.0% from the 3-point line in Year 21.
