James joined Michael Jordan in becoming one of two players in NBA history to score 40 or more points in a game at age 40 or older, as James scored 42 points, grabbed 17 rebounds and dished out eight assists in the victory.

LeBron James was the first pick of the new-look 2025 NBA All-Star draft Thursday night and was soon joined by a now-former teammate -- Anthony Davis.

Since returning 40 years old on Dec. 30, James has averaged a stellar 26.2 points. That said, scoring his age has so far eluded him. When Michael Jordan turned 40 while playing for the Washington Wizards on Feb. 17, 2003, he scored 43 just days later against the New Jersey Nets.
