Predicting when LeBron James will break NBA record that will never be broken again

As it stands, LeBron James has scored a whopping 37,062 points. That total puts LeBron in second place behind the great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who scored 38,387 points.

The 2022-23 season gets underway this week and assuming he stays healthy, Los Angeles Lakersโ€˜ future Hall of Famer LeBron James will break a record that will never be broken again.

James, who is 37, is entering his 20th NBA season, and after the Lakers missed the NBA Playoffs in 2021-22, you can bet he will be determined as ever to make a run during the upcoming season.

What NBA record will LeBron James break in 2022-23?

As it stands, LeBron James has scored a whopping 37,062 points. That total puts LeBron in second place behind the great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who scored 38,387 points in his Hall of Fame career. (Note: Kareem played in 1,560 career games, and LeBron has played in 1,366 career games)

LeBron James

When LeBron finally breaks Kareemโ€™s scoring record, I truly believe that it will be a record that will stand for the remainder of time.

When will LeBron James break Kareemโ€™s record?

During his 19 seasons in the NBA, James has been named to the NBA All-Star team 18 times and it is a safe bet that he will accomplish that again in 2022-23.

But this yearโ€™s All-Star game could be extra special as I predict LeBron will break Kareemโ€™s record on February 15th at home against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Nation, when do you think LeBron James will break the all-time scoring record? Once he breaks it, will it ever be broken again?
