Lakers News: After Surpassing Wilt Chamberlain, LeBron James Donating Game Ball And Uniform To I Promise School

LeBron James moved into fifth on the NBA all-time scoring list, surpassing Wilt Chamberlain, en route to a Los Angeles Lakers victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. And while it was a historic achievement on its own, James used it as an opportunity to remember his home and how he got to such a great moment.

Because of this, James decided it would be best to donate the game ball and his uniform to his I Promise school in Akron, Ohio. James opened the school at the end of July with the hope of giving underprivileged kids the chance to receive a quality education through college for no cost.
