Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James scores 49,999 points

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has broken the record again, bringing his career total points to 49,999.

The 40-year-old James is the No. 1 scoring player in NBA history, with a total of 41,837 points in the regular season and 8,162 points in the playoffs. James only needs to score one more point to become the first and only player in NBA history to score more than 50,000 points.

Here are James' amazing stats:

10+ point games: 1,824 (1st in history)

20+ point games: 1,534 (1st in history)

30+ point games: 690 (1st in history)

40+ point games: 108 (5th in history)

50+ point games: 15 (7th in history)

What is even more amazing about this data is that James only scored less than 10 points in 10 games. The most critical factor for James to top the NBA's historical scoring list is his stability. No matter what, James can always contribute stable performance.

Currently, the Los Angeles Lakers are in a stage of recovery. In the recent six-game winning streak, both the offensive and defensive performances are equally outstanding. With this winning streak, the Los Angeles Lakers have jumped to the second place in the Western Conference, and have taken a big step towards securing a playoff spot.

If the Los Angeles Lakers can add another win to their game today against the New Orleans Pelicans, they will extend their winning streak to seven games and further solidify their lead in the Western Conference.
