LeBron James, the premier player for the Los Angeles Lakers, recently broke Kareem Abdul-all-time Jabbar’s scoring record. Yet even now, nobody can stop talking about that memorable incident, which will go down as one of the most recognizable baskets in the annals of the game.
During one of his interviews for Sunday’s highly-anticipated NBA All-Star Game, James was, unsurprisingly, asked to talk about his experience in breaking the scoring record. LeBron then revealed that his favorite part about this milestone is seeing his daughter Zhuri’s priceless reaction:
“It’s hard for me to stop watching that because watching Zhuri’s reaction to that is like the greatest… It’s so cool,” LeBron said. “If I’m having a bad day I know exactly where I can go to fix my day. Seeing Zhuri’s reaction to that moment, it was pretty, pretty cool.”
“I wasn’t chasing it. I was just hoopin”

I mean, how can this moment not stir some sort of emotion in any basketball fan? You must be an avid LeBron James hater to not appreciate the magnitude of this historic occasion. Love him or hate him, you have to give this man his props and show him the respect that he deserves for this epic milestone.
As you may have determined, LeBron James is a big family man, too. Finally breaking the scoring record was great and all, but it is clear that the moment would not have been as special for him if he wasn’t able to share it with his loving family.
