If you were hoping for some drama when Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James broke Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's record and became the leading scorer in NBA history Tuesday, you were sorely disappointed. Abdul-Jabbar showed up for the contest, embraced James at center court and smiled as the two took pictures together.
That reaction wasn't a guarantee, especially after James said he had "no relationship" with Abdul-Jabbar in the weeks leading up to the record-breaking night.
Abdul-Jabbar addressed that comment and revealed how he truly felt about James setting the NBA's all-time scoring record in a lengthy Substack post Wednesday.
