LeBron James became the NBA's career-scoring leader, going past Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's record during his 38-point performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night.

James surpassed the mark held since April 1984 by Abdul-Jabbar, who watched the game from a baseline seat near the Lakers' bench. 

While James had another exceptional show, the Lakers suffered yet another loss, going down 133-130 to the Thunder.
