LeBron: Youngest NBA player to reach 2,000 points
LeBron James became the youngest player in National Basketball Association history to reach 2,000 points Saturday as he scored 26 in Cleveland's 96-74 victory over Chicago.
James, 19 and last season's rookie of the year, reached the 2,000-point mark on a fadeaway jumper with just over a minute remaining in the third quarter.
James, who entered the game second in the NBA with an average of 27.3 points per game, was 11-of-17 from the field. He also added seven assists and seven rebounds.
James's milestone came less than a week after he posted a career high and NBA season-leading 43 points to lift Cleveland to a victory over defending NBA champions Detroit.
