Christmas is a big day on the NBA calendar. This holiday is a major showcase for every player and coach in the NBA. This season, we will have 12 straight hours of action and five different games. The best teams in the NBA will meet for their big game.

The NBA is dealing with a spike in COVID cases. Everything points to the fact that there will be no delays. Every game will be played.

This particular game is of great importance for LeBron. The king of basketball has a chance to make history on Saturday. LeBron will enter the game against the Nets with 12 points behind Kobe Bryant on the all-time Christmas scoring list.

Kobe had 395 points in 16 games (24.6 ppg on FG 40.8%) and LeBron has 383 points in 15 games (25.5 ppg on 48.4% FG)

King James is averaging over 26 points per game this season and we have at least one good reason to believe that he will get the points he needs to pass the Black Mamba and become the league’s all-time leading scorer.

LeBron will also have a chance to tie Kobe for the most Christmas Day games.

The Lakers will have to try really hard to win this game. They have lost too many games so far in the regular season and the 16-17 record doesn’t look good at all. Let’s hope that the team will have more luck in the upcoming stretch. LeBron missed too many games and his players struggle to fit in the system. COVID-19 and injuries make everything worse. Things should take a better turn now.
