LeBron James passes Michael Jordan’s NBA record for most 30-point games in Lakers win over Hawks

CNN  

CNN — LeBron James set yet another record on Friday as he surpassed the legendary Michael Jordan’s mark for the most 30-point games in NBA history, breaking the milestone in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 119-102 victory over the Atlanta Hawks. James scored 30 points on 13-of-20 shooting, reaching the mark with an 18-foot jumper reminiscent of Jordan deep into the fourth quarter to record his 563rd 30-point game, passing the record the Chicago Bulls star set in 2003. So to know that I can sit here and be in the room or in the conversation or whatever it is, when you mention MJ, it’s just super-duper dope for me, being a kid from where I’m from.” James led the way for the Lakers, who produced a relatively balanced offensive performance with Anthony Davis adding 18 points, 19 rebounds, three steals and three blocks and Austin Reaves adding 20 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Harry How/Getty Images Despite his teammates’ contributions, the night truly belonged to the four-time league MVP who reached the mark in his 22nd season and 1,523rd career regular-season game.
