James finished the game with 29 points, leaving him at 33,655 for his career. The Lakers lost to the 76ers 108-91.
“I’m happy just to be in any conversation with Kobe Bryant,” James told reporters after the game. “One of the all-time greatest basketball players to ever play, one of the all-time greatest Lakers. The man got two jerseys hanging up in Staples Center. It’s just crazy.” Long-time Utah Jazz star forward Karl Malone is next, with 36,928 points. Center Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the league’s all-time scoring leader with 38,387 points.
James, 35, is in his 17th NBA season and second with the Lakers. He spent 11 seasons across two different stints with the Cleveland Cavaliers, with a four-season run in Miami in between. He began the night averaging 25.2 points in 43 games this season, leading the Lakers to the Western Conference’s best record at 36-10, including Saturday’s loss. He was also named to his 16th straight All-Star Game earlier this week.
