LeBron James passed Karl Malone on the career scoring list, leaving only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar still to catch.

James came into the game needing 19 points to tie Malone. He ended up scoring double that, but the Washington Wizards rallied from a 16-point deficit to win 127-119 on Saturday night.

Malone scored 36,928 points. Abdul-Jabbar’s record of 38,387 is in reach if James stays healthy.

Do you think Lebron will break the record?
