LeBron James moved within 89 points of breaking the NBA career scoring record, and climbed into fourth place on the assists list, with a triple-double
career scoring record and climbed into fourth place on the assists list, finishing with his first triple-double of the season in his return to Madison Square Garden as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the New York Knicks 129-123 in overtime on Tuesday night.
But James’ game has always been about more than scoring, as he proved again Tuesday. He fed Dennis Schroder for a three-pointer that snapped a 118-118 tie with 3:13 remaining, grabbed his 10th rebound later in the extra period and then powered to the basket for a 127-121 lead with 19 seconds to go. James had earlier moved ahead of Mark Jackson and then Steve Nash into fourth place on the assists list during his first game at Madison Square Garden in three years.
Jalen Brunson scored 37 points and Julius Randle had 23 points and 12 rebounds for the Knicks, who were 7 for 34 from three-point range and dropped their second straight.
