Reaching a scoring milestone only made Jaylen Brown realize LeBron James’ greatness

Jaylen Brown has now scored more than 12,000 points in his NBA career

This season, the Celtics weren’t expected to be competitive because of Jayson Tatum’s torn Achilles tendon injury.

On top of that, the front office also blew up their 2024 NBA Championship-winning roster by trading Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday.

Despite that, the Celtics are currently the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference, thanks to Brown leading the team by example.

Are the Boston Celtics still a dangerous threat in the East without Jayson Tatum?

Speaking of Brown, the 29-year-old recently reached a major career milestone as he has now scored over 12,000 points in the regular season.

Brown is flaunting his scoring ability by averaging 29.0 points per game this season for the Celtics.

Jaylen Brown realized LeBron James’ greatness after scoring 12,000 points

Brown is currently at the peak of his career and remains one of the best players in the NBA. However, when it comes to scoring, no player has been better than LA Lakers star LeBron James.

After all, LBJ is the NBA’s all-time scoring leader. As of now, James has 42,260 points to his name and Brown realized how crazy it is after completing 12,000 points in his NBA career.

“On Sunday, I passed 12,000 career points in the league, right? And I was sitting there thinking about it, how the f___ does LeBron get 42,000?” Brown said on a livestream.

Indeed, scoring more than 40,000 points is unbelievable, and the craziest part is that James is still an active player in the NBA.

It means he’ll add more points to his name before calling it a day, and this record of the 4x NBA champion may never be broken.
