For reference, to break that record, LeBron would have to average just 16.2 points per game over an 82-game season. Now, there are a lot of factors that will go into that total, whether it's the fact he's never averaged fewer than 20.9 points per game or that he's played 82 games only once in his career.

LeBron James has scored over 39,000 points in his professional basketball career. He now needs 548 points to reach the next milestone.
