Jaylen Brown Marvels at 'How the F--k' LeBron James Has 42K Career NBA Points in Video

Timothy RappDec 4, 2025

LeBron James even has his fellow NBA players in awe.

Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown recently discussed James' absurd NBA record of 42,260 career points during a stream on Twitch.

"On Sunday I passed 12,000 career points... 12,000 career points in the league, right?" he said. "And I was thinking about it, sitting there—how the f--k does LeBron got 42,000, bro? What the...?"

James' career truly has no parallel. He's remarkably in his 23rd NBA season, a record. He's a 21-time All-Star, 21-time All-NBA selection, four-time champion and four-time MVP. He's fourth all-time in assists (11,620) and second all-time in games played (1,567).

There are plenty of criteria to consider when determining your personal NBA GOAT, but nobody can touch James when it comes to longevity. And James hasn't just played for a long time, he's been elite for a long time, an important distinction.

That's how you score over 42,000 points in the NBA. That's how you leave a perpetual All-Star like Brown borderline speechless at your accomplishments.
