On Tuesday, LeBron James of the Lakers made history by scoring 39,000 points in his NBA career, a feat that no other player has achieved. Despite this impressive milestone, his coach Darvin Ham did not give him the game ball. The Lakers’ performance in their victory over the Utah Jazz was also reminiscent of the ‘Showtime’ Lakers era, adding further reason for celebration.

James’ achievement of reaching 39,000 points won’t be marked by receiving the game ball from his coach, Darvin Ham. Lakers Nation reported that Ham refused to give James the ball, stating that although the accomplishment is impressive, it’s not quite 40,000 points yet. Thankfully, James is still set to hit that milestone later in the season, unless something unforeseen happens. It’s important for everyone to appreciate what they’re witnessing as James continues to make history on the court.

On Tuesday, Kobe Bryant wasn’t the only one making headlines as Suns’ Kevin Durant also achieved a scoring milestone. With a bucket in the first quarter against the Blazers, he surpassed Elvin Hayes to become the 11th highest scorer in the NBA’s history. The next player on the list is Moses Malone, who passed away, with 27,409 career points. It looks like it won’t be long before Durant overtakes Malone on the list, possibly within the coming month.
