Lebron James yesterday set another milestone in his career, becoming the first player to score more than 40,000 points in the NBA.

According to journalist Darius Soriano, to score 40,000 points, a player needs to play about 20 seasons, 82 matches and have an average of 24.4 points/game. No one in history has been able to maintain that series of achievements, requiring stability over a very long period of time and not having to take too many breaks. Of course, any player who can do that will definitely be a star, even the number 1 star in the team he plays for.

Lebron James has a higher average score/game than journalist Soriano gave. He only takes a short break in one season and has regularly played over 30 minutes/match since the beginning of his career. The player born in 1984 is also the fastest person to reach the milestones of 1,000 points, 2,000 points and 40,000 points in the NBA.

Currently, Lebron James is the second-ranked player in NBA history. He has shown no signs of wanting to stop playing at this time. He is more than 11,000 points ahead of the nearest player still playing, Kevin Durant. Although attacking in basketball today has become easier than it was a decade ago, it is very difficult for Lebron James’ record to be broken in the near future.
