Lebron on pace to break the scoring record

I think he'll break it in the home game after our game. He's calculated and he's going to want to do it at Crypto. It'll be more meaningful as a I expect them to stop the game and celebrate the accomplishment.

Before people get too excited, there's a chance he breaks it here, but it's a stretch right now to say he's on pace for that.

He needs 224 points right now. If he plays all 6 games before ours and averages 32 pts in them, then his 32nd point in our game would break the record. If it's close at the end, we should just keep fouling him so he either has to miss the free throws or break the record here lol.

From espn:

- At his career scoring average of 27.2 points per game, James would need nine games to break the mark, putting him on track to do it Feb. 9 against the Milwaukee Bucks.


- At his 2022-23 scoring average of 29.8 points per game, James would need eight games to break the mark, putting him on track to do it Feb. 7 against the Oklahoma City Thunder.


- Since turning 38 on Dec. 30, James is averaging 35.1 points per game. If he maintains that average, James would need seven games to break the mark, putting him on track to do it Feb. 4 against the New Orleans Pelicans.


This all assumes James plays every game between now and when he breaks the record. He's already missed 10 games this season and the Lakers have two sets of back-to-backs between now and the end of February.

yeah no chance he does it on the road. this will 10000% occur in LA.

And I hope every Pelicans fan in attendance boos when it happens. frick Lebron.

Too bad Kareem had to wait until he was 22 to enter the NBA, Lebron would still be four years away from the scoring title.
