Beyond Abdul-Jabbar, beyond Bryant

As ‘King’ LeBron James (39, LA Lakers) ranked first in the NBA’s all-time scoring record, the price of resale (resale) tickets for Lakers home games rose to an average of $1,150 (approximately 1.44 million won). . It is an amount that exceeds the previous highest price ($1137) for a Lakers home game resale ticket that came out during the retirement game of Kobe Bryant (1978-2020) on April 4, 2016.

As of the 7th, James has a career record of 38,352 points. With just 36 more points, it will surpass the NBA career record of 38,387 points held by team senior Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (76) for 34 years. James can write a new record in a home game against Oklahoma City on the 8th at the earliest.

Steve Inman (31), who is planning to fly from Florida in the southeast of the United States to Los Angeles (LA) in the west to watch the game, told CBS in the United States, “As long as I’m alive, no player will break James’ career scoring record. will be. I will watch this moment and tell the story of the generations.”

Given that James is averaging 30 points per game this season, he’s likely to surpass Abdul-Jabbar in the next game rather than the 8th game. James scored 36 or more points in a single game this season in 9 out of 43 games (20.9%). The Lakers’ next game against Milwaukee will also be held on the 10th at Crypto.com Arena, the home stadium.

If you look at the ticket price for the most expensive seat, ‘courtside’, you can see that fans also believe that James is more likely to break the record on the 10th than on the 8th. Courtside tickets for the Milwaukee game cost up to $68,995 (about 87 million won), more than 40% more expensive than the Oklahoma City game ($48,403). Courtside seats are located right behind the benches of both teams, only 2 meters away from the sideline, and if you are lucky, you can have a conversation with the players. 메이저놀이터

Abdul-Jabbar is also scheduled to visit the stadium on the 8th and 10th to celebrate the moment James broke his own record. The NBA announced that any game in which James could break his record would be broadcast live throughout the United States.
