LeBron James has been in the NBA for quite some time now and in that time he’s accumulated a whole lot of points. In fact, last night he did something only six others have done in the Association, score 30,000 points! He is the seventh member of the club and did so faster than the rest of them.
When he scored his eighth point in the first quarter against the Spurs Tuesday night, he hit 30,0001 points, making him 33 years and 24 days old. The next closest member to that age is Kobe Bryant who took a full year and 80 days more to complete the same feat.
Players took to social media to congratulate him and not surprisingly the media would ask him many questions about the milestone. Congratulations to LeBron James, the fastest player in NBA history to the 30,000-points club!
