LeBron James has accomplished quite a bit in his almost 14 seasons in the NBA, championships, league MVPs, 1st Team All-NBA nods, and he is still only 32.
He added another notch to his belt Thursday night as he climbed one rung higher on the ladder that is the NBA’s all-time scoring list, passing Shaquille O’Neal to move into 7th.
Number 7.

If you look at the numbers, considering Dirk is expecting to comeback, LeBron may not be able to move up any more spots on this list in 2017-18, but you can bet that he will be top five at the very least by the time he decides to hang them up.
Once again, quite the accomplishment in a career full of them, I am sure King James is much more concerned with figuring out ways to drag his team out of whatever mega slump they are in and find their rhythm again as they head into the postseason and their NBA title defense.
