LEBRON JAMES BECAME THE 3RD HIGHEST ALL-TIME SCORER IN THE NBA

LeBron James has sealed another accolade as he became the 3rd highest all-time scorer in the NBA...

Lakers won their game over Philadelphia 108-91 as LeBron scores 35 points to reach a feat of 33,655 career points.

He just passed former Lakers legend Kobe Bryant by 12 points.  

Kobe Bryant is LeBron's idol and it was a honour for LeBron to be on the same platform as his idol.

Kobe went to Twitter to pay his respects to LeBron after he became the 3rd all-time scorer in the NBA.

Continuing to move the game forward @KingJames. Much respect my brother 💪🏾 #33644

LeBron was given a pair of sneakers by Kobe 18 years ago and now out of respect and fate LeBron plays for Kobe's Lakers team.

On his shoe LeBron wrote 'Mamba for life' out of respect to the legend Kobe Bryant.

"I'm just happy to be in any conversation with Kobe Bryant, one of the all-time greats to ever play," said LeBron.
