LeBron James , also known as 'King James', went on to draft history by being the youngest player in the history of NBA on reaching a super milestone of 25000 points. He achieved this feat in the match 'Cleveland Cavaliers against Philadelphia 76ers'. Cleveland Cavaliers won 107-100 against 76ers.
LeBron James, who is playing his 13th season, missed the training camp recently due to the 'back problem'. LeBron did a dunk to get 22 points in the match and reach the 25000 point milestone. James also had 11 assists in the match. It was a spectacular Monday night when James put up an extraordinary show.
"It's pretty cool," James said, according to sources of ESPN.GO.COM "I haven't really had an opportunity to categorize the list of things that I've done, but to be able to do it in a winning fashion, No. 1, and with this group of guys and do it in a building that loves the game of basketball -- and obviously, they are Sixers fans 'til death, but they know and they respect the game of basketball -- and to get a standing ovation for reaching the milestone, it was very special."
LeBron may be the youngest athlete in NBA to achieve 25000 points, but Wilt Chamberlain played least number of games to achieve the feat of 25000 points. NBA legend Michael Jordon took 782 games to reach the mark. LeBron James stands 4th in this league of people with fewest games to reach the mark with 915 games.
"It just means that I've played with a lot of great teammates, a lot of great coaches that have allowed me to be in position to be successful on the floor," James said at shoot-around Monday, when informed he was nearing the point total. "It's definitely a milestone any time you're able to have an accomplishment like that. I've been around some great groups, and I'm able to reap a lot of the benefits."
There are six other players in the league to have managed to reach the same milestone. LeBron is the seventh player and 20th player in the history to reach the mark.
