LeBron James completes 7000 playoffs points, sets another record

 

Los Lakers’ superstar LeBron James has been on a roll in the last couple of matches. The King has shown why he is regarded as one of the best players in the NBA and he is doing a fine job for the LA Lakers along with his partner Anthony Davis. James has been in sublime form and he is making sure that the team benefits from the same.

In the fourth game of the playoff stages against the Portland Trail Blazers, the LA Lakers were too good for the opposition. The LA Lakers defeated the Portland Trail Blazers by 135-115 to take a 3-1 lead in the seven match series, with Lebron James top-scoring for the winners with 30 points.
