When will LeBron pass Kareem? NBA all-time scoring tracker

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James needs 63 points to pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the NBA’s all-time regular-season scoring record (38,387 points).

James previously broke the record for most total points — regular season and playoffs — in February 2022, and on Jan. 16, he became just the second player in NBA history to score 38,000 career points.

James is projected to break the record in the next three games. That means, barring injury, he could set the mark as soon as next week.

• Jan. 25 vs. San Antonio: 20 points, 8-for-20 shooting
• Jan. 28 @ Boston: 41 points, 15-for-30 shooting
