stands alone at the top The LeBron James All-Time Points Leader challenge is now available in-game for a brief period, with challengers who successfully complete it unlocking a 10-pick HOF Option Pack. To complete the challenge, players will have to take on record holder LeBron on four of his iconic teams, and prevent him from scoring his game average of 27 points.
The challenge is only available for 48 hours after it was first announced, which means there’s just under 24 hours left to take on some of LeBron’s best teams.
NBA 2K also posted a video with narration by previous record holder Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. The Lakers player has held the record since April 5, 1984, which he notes in the video is the year LeBron was born. Abdul-Jabbar held the record of 38,387 points for nearly 40 years, a record some believed would never be broken.

From Kareem to the King.
