Labron James has reached 20,000 points. Do y'all think He will break Kareem Abdul Jabar's record of 38,387 points?
At his current scoring pace (which would be hard to keep up as he gets older) he'd have to play 9 more seasons to get there. That would make him 37 when he breaks the record. It's possible he will play at a high level that long but I'd guess his pace will slow and it would take a couple of extra years. So I will say it's unlikely, but certainly possible.
FWIW, Kareem played until the age of 42. Michael Jordan was 40 in his final season with the Wizards, and his skills were significantly diminished.
