Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James enters Monday evening's game against the Houston Rockets at Crypto.com Arena needing 364 points to surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and become the NBA's career scoring leader.
James scored a game-high equaling 35 points in the Lakers' 113-112 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers Sunday night at Crypto.com Arena and became the second player in NBA history to reach 38,000 career points.
James is seventh in the league in scoring, averaging 29.2 points per game. If he maintains his average and does not miss a game, he would set the record Feb. 9 in a game against the Milwaukee Bucks at Crypto.com Arena. The Lakers took their last lead, 109-108, with 1:42 left on Dennis Schroder's 8-foot floating shot. Philadelphia took the lead for good with 1:27 to play on Georges Niang's 3-point basket. The 76ers increased their lead to 113-109 with 45.7 seconds remaining on Joel Embiid's 13-foot jump shot.
