LeBron James solidifies his status among NBA greats with recent performance
On Sunday night, LeBron James delivered an unforgettable performance for the Lakers and simultaneously became a member of three record-breaking clubs.
According to sources, James has become the second player on the LA Lakers to achieve the feat of making nine 3-pointers in multiple games, following in the footsteps of the late Kobe Bryant, who accomplished it four times.
Moreover, James has surpassed Michael Jordan as the player with the most 30-point games. Jordan previously held the record with 671 games of 30 or more points, but now it is the Akron, Ohio, native who has claimed the top spot with 672 games.
James’ advanced age was a contributing factor to his record-setting performance. At 35 years old, he became the oldest player to achieve a 40-point game with a 100+ TS%, surpassing the previous records set by Paul Pierce and Jeff Hornacek, who were 35 and 31 years old, respectively.
