Tuesday night might see LeBron James make NBA history. If the future Hall of Famer scores 36 points against the Oklahoma City Thunder, he will officially surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record of 38,387 points. And if James doesn’t do it Tuesday, he will almost certainly take the record home against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday.
Knowing how James sometimes weirdly approaches situations, folks in the NBA world have started to speculate about the shot he’ll use to surpass Abdul-Jabbar. For a prolific scorer like him, any of the standard dunks, three-point attempts, free throws, or lay-ups will likely suffice.
