LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers recently faced off against the Denver Nuggets. James seemingly broke a record in the league during the game, becoming the first player to reach 40,000 career regular-season points. After the game, James spoke about his game that night, saying the milestone was “bittersweet” due to the Lakers’ loss. “Being the first player to do something, it’s pretty cool in this league, just knowing the history, the greats that’s come through the league, and then you see some of the greats on the floor tonight, it was great to compete,” said James.
