LeBron James Sets All-Time Career Field Goal Mark In This Nike LeBron 23 PE

At this rate, LeBron James might need a chapter in the record books unto himself. We’d leave it to the King to decide which of his achievements he cherishes the most personally. From our perspective, the points record is a perfect summation of what’s made him a pantheon-level great: overall dominance sustained at a “see it to believe it” level of longevity.

James chalked off another all-time mark in action against the Denver Nuggets, surpassing fellow Laker Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for most field goals made with his second basket of the night. To celebrate that in advance, he pulled out a Nike LeBron 23 “15838*” PE, the number he reached with that bucket to sit atop the pyramid. In a similar metallic style to his “Warning Label” colorway, the shoe comprehensively takes a shimmering purple and gold to nod to the squad he’s made such history with. You’ll of course note the asterisk; though the Kid From Akron didn’t confirm it post-game, we take it to reference that if you take “all time” literally, he’s had this title for some time: his playoff field goals outpace Kareem’s 2,971 to 2,356.

Quibble with the specifics if you will, but James is in the history books once again, and well deserving of sneaker media headlines for this can’t-miss edition. Catch in-action shots below.
