Watch: LeBron Passes Kobe Bryant On All-Time Scoring List Vs. 76ers

Lakers superstar LeBron James is the greatest of all times. He is doing an incredible job on the floor, and Lakers fans are raging. The king of basketball passed Lakers legend Kobe Bryant on the all-time scoring list Saturday.

The 35-year-old entered Saturday’s match against the Philadelphia 76ers with 17 points behind Bryant. Los Angeles was winning games thanks to Bryant, and he finished his career with 33,643 points.

The Los Angeles Lakers are 36-9 at this point in the regular season, and they are now considered favorites. LeBron has taken on more point guard-type duties than at any other stage of his professional career. LeBron is leading the NBA in assists at 10.8 per game. Anthony Davis and LeBron make the best duo in the NBA.

It will be at least another season, if not into 2021-22, before James is moving up to second on the all-time list. James is more than 3,000 points behind Karl Malone, who is second on the all-time list with 36,928 points. He has scored fewer than 2,000 total points in four of the previous five seasons due to missing games for rest/injuries.

Going up on the all-time scoring list

LeBron also passed Michael Jordan.

“Of all the stuff I’ve done in my career, this ranks right up there at the top with winning a championship,” LeBron told media members. “For a kid from Akron, Ohio, that needed inspiration and needed some type of positive influence, MJ was that guy for me. I watched him from afar, wanted to be like MJ, wanted to shoot fadeaways like MJ, wanted to stick my tongue out on dunks like MJ, wanted to wear my sneakers like MJ. I wanted kids to look up to me at some point like MJ and it’s just crazy, to be honest. It’s beyond crazy.”

Well, the Los Angeles Lakers are looking forward to play some great games, and LeBron will help them win more games. He is set to hit a few milestones this season, and yes, pretty much everyone knows that he will keep playing a few more seasons. This is one of his best seasons, and he is about to finish the season with a title.
