Since turning 38, LeBron James has gone on a scoring spree. The King has scored 40 four times since his birthday. Averaging nearly 30 per contest, the four-time MVP is firing on all gears for the Los Angeles Lakers. However, his unconscious scoring has also seen him march closer to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. The much-anticipated date is nearing. Likewise, everyone wants to see the moment in history. With a date in mind, the prices have started to go haywire.

The fans and supporters have eagerly waited for this moment. Prior to the season, the NBA prepared to re-alter history from three decades ago. A pass-first star like the Akron Hammer is only few games away from the very pinnacle of scoring. The moment will arguably have eyes from all around the world. LeBron James’ illustrious career will have yet another mark of brilliance.

The hype has been built, and the moment might just be very close. After his 20 points, 9 rebounds, and 11 assists performance against the San Antonio Spurs, the four-time Finals MVP is only 158 points away. Likewise, the basketball pundits feel it could be a fairytale moment. Notably, James might become the all-time leading scorer facing the Milwaukee Bucks, Abdul-Jabbar’s former team.

Seeing the surge in prices, NBA Twitter were left in a frenzy. Some called out the NBA for scripting the season. On the other hand, some think that the moment will come much before.

Over his last 10 games, LeBron James has put up 32.7 points per game according to Stat Muse. The Lakers will play six games before the Bucks. At this current rate, the King might break through just before facing Milwaukee. However, they will need him to play in all the games. If that’s not the case, the chances of him doing it against the team Abdul-Jabbar won a championship with would be likely. It all depends on what approach James takes while walking down the historic feat.
