LeBron James Nears Historic 50,000 Career Points

LeBron James is just one point away from becoming the first player in NBA history to reach 50,000

career points, combining regular season and playoff totals.

He had a chance to hit the milestone in the Lakers' win over the Clippers but fell just

short.

Now, all eyes are on Tuesday’s game against the Pelicans, where he’s expected to make history.

The Lakers are on a six-game winning streak and have surged to the No.

2 seed in the Western Conference.

Despite major roster changes, including the addition of Luka Dončić, the team has found its rhythm.

Dončić has been a key contributor, scoring 29 points in their latest win.

The Lakers are looking like serious championship contenders.

LeBron James has joined an elite group of players with 1,000 career regular-season wins, alongside Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Tim

Duncan, and Robert Parish.

He’s now just 74 wins away from becoming the all-time leader in this category.

At 40 years old, LeBron continues to defy expectations and dominate the league.

The Lakers could be short-handed against the Pelicans.

LeBron James is listed as probable due to injury management, while Austin Reaves and Luka Dončić are questionable.

Despite injuries, the Lakers' depth has stepped up, with players like Dalton Knecht and Gabe Vincent making key

contributions.

LeBron James shared a touching tribute to his mother, Gloria, on social media.

He posted a side-by-side video of two moments, 22 years apart, showing her embracing him courtside.

LeBron has always credited his mother for his success, and this moment melted fans' hearts.
