LeBron James: The Third NBA Player to Reach 35,000 Career Points

LeBron James is undoubtedly one of the most skilled players in NBA history. James is going far and beyond to emerge as one of the best players in the league at the age of 36. With his career taking new dimensions, the legendary player continues to make a mark in the record books.

He recently added the title of becoming the third player to have reached 35,000 career points and for a good reason, he did this quicker than anyone else could. He required 15 points against the Nets to hit this milestone and amazingly, he did so before halftime. Showing no intentions of slowing down, the player managed to exceed Karl Malone for No. 2 on the all-time scoring list by the end of the 2021-22 campaign. James is following a reasonable pace and consistency.
