Author of 42 points and 17 rebounds in addition to the victory on Thursday, the winger of the Los Angeles Lakers still rooted his imprint in the history of the NBA.

Luka Doncic had to appreciate. Just transferred to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Slovenian was able to observe the historical performance of his new teammate. Already the best marker in the history of the NBA, LeBron James made an almost unreal match for his age by scoring 42 points and gleaning 17 rebounds during the victory against the Golden State Warriors of Stephen Curry, Thursday February 6 (120-112). Enough to become the oldest player in history to reach the 40 -point mark in a match, at 40 and 38 days old, who was already the youngest in history to have achieved this performance, at 19 and 88 days old, in 2004.

He joins a very closed circle since they are only … two to have scored 40 points after 40 years. The other is obviously Michael Jordan, who had scored 43 points at 40 and four days in February 2003. “What do I think? That I am old”joked LeBron James. “He I need a glass of wine and sleep “he added. He said he welcomed information with “humility”and especially welcomed this 10th success in 12 games for Lakers, now 5th to the west.
