Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James says 'it's an honor' to pass Karl Malone on career scoring list​


It was only fitting that Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron Jamed passed Karl Malone as the NBA's second all-time leading scorer doing what "The Mailman" did thousands of times, cutting to the basket, receiving a pass and scoring on an uncontested driving layup. James moved past Malone, the Hall of Famer and former Utah Jazz great who scored 36,928 points, at the 5:20 mark in the second quarter against the Washington Wizards on Saturday. He entered the game needing 20 points to pass Malone, who scored so many of his baskets off assists from John Stockton. With 36,947 points, James trails only former Lakers great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar on the career scoring list. Abdul-Jabbar's record stands at 38,387 points.

LeBron James critical of United States' efforts to bring Brittney Griner home from Russia​


As Brittney Griner's detention in Russia has galvanized the sports world in support of the WNBA star's return to the United States, Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James questioned why Griner would want to return to a country that has taken so much time to aid in a resolution for her. "Now, how can she feel like America has her back?" James said in a trailer for the latest episode of his talk show, "The Shop: Uninterrupted," which airs on YouTube. "I would be feeling like, 'Do I even want to go back to America?'" In early June, shortly after the U.S. State Department classified Griner's plight as a wrongful detention, James tweeted in support of the seven-time All-Star. James' Uninterrupted multimedia platform is also selling T-shirts with "We Are BG" printed on the front, with Uninterrupted's online store stating that the proceeds from the merchandise will go to The BG Advocacy Fund, run by Griner's family to cover legal costs associated with her release.

LeBron James Says Boston Celtics Fans Are 'Racist as F***'​


LeBron James has something to say you Boston basketball fans --
you're SO racist. LeBron went off on his latest episode of "The Shop," after being asked why he hates Boston. His blunt answer ... "Cause they racist as f***." King James went on ... "They will say anything. And it's fine. It's my life, f*** I've been dealing with it my whole life. I don't mind it. I hear it. If I hear somebody close by, I check them real quick, then move onto the game. They're going to say whatever the f*** they want to say." LeBron's not alone. Other players have also groused about the way Celtics fans behave, Klay Thompson complained, "We've played in front of rude fans before. Dropping f-bombs with children in the crowd. Really classy. Good job, Boston." Draymond Green's wife blasted them for chanting "f*** you Draymond" during the NBA finals.

LeBron James, the Golden State Warriors' tax bill and what else to watch in 2023 NBA free agency​


The NBA offseason never stops. More than 160 players have already signed new contracts, and the vast majority of roster spots are filled heading into training camp in September. But there are still plenty of storylines to keep an eye on -- and we're not just talking about the futures of Kevin Durant and Donovan, both of whom will have an impact not only on this season but on the summer of 2023. If that free agency period began right now, the class would be considered historic. Six of the top available players either have won a regular-season MVP or were a key part of a team that won an NBA championship. However, with 11 months to go before 2023 free agency officially opens, expect that class to shrink between now and then. It starts in Los Angeles, where LeBron James is faced with a decision on whether to extend his contract or become the most sought-out free agent in 2023. James, at least for now, is the headliner of a 2023 offseason for which nearly half the league's teams are projected to have cap space.

LeBron James breaks Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's NBA scoring record​


It was a fadeaway jumper, not a skyhook ode to Abdul-Jabbar or one of his signature power dunks with 10.9 seconds left in the third quarter of a 133-130 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder that sent James to the top of a mountain that Abdul-Jabbar stood on for more than 38 years at 38,387 career points. James entered the game with 38,352 points, needing 36 to overtake Abdul-Jabbar. He finished the night with 38 points on 13-of-20 shooting (4-of-6 from 3) to go along with 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals. Abdul-Jabbar held the game ball aloft then handed it to James, the ceremonial passing of the torch. They posed for photos with Silver then with each other. The four-time champion and four-time MVP continues to add to his résumé, also ranking No. 4 in career assists, No. 9 in steals, No. 32 in rebounds and No. 91 in blocks -- all a testament to James' dominance and longevity, having logged the third-most minutes in league history.

LeBron James says he will consider retirement this offseason​


LeBron James made his way down the ramp to exit the arena Monday night, having just completed his 20th NBA season with an unceremonious sweep out of the playoffs, not knowing if it would be the last time he would make that walk as an active player. James told ESPN he will consider retirement this offseason.

James has one season remaining on his contract with the Lakers, worth $46.7 million for 2023-24, and a player option for the following season worth $50.4 million.

Over the past several years, he has repeatedly made it known that his goal is to play in the league with his oldest son, Bronny, before he retires. As he approached passing Kareem and I'll jab bar's all-time scoring record in February, he told ESPN the last thing left for him to accomplish after the scoring mark was, "I got to play with my boy".

No.1: LeBron James - 38,652
