The 40-year-old James became the oldest player to score 40 points in an NBA game Thursday night, putting up a season-high 42 in the Los Angeles Lakers' 120-112 victory over the Golden State Warriors. James passed the record held by Michael Jordan, his idol and the only other NBA player to score 40 after his 40th birthday.

The Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers matched up on Thursday night, but unfortunately, it wasn't the two versions of the teams fans were looking to s

The former championship teammates will find themselves sharing the floor just two weeks after being separated by L.A.'s blockbuster Luka Doncic trade.

When asked about the trade, Legler, on the All-NBA Podcast, had the following to say, refusing to hold back on the situation: "Not only would Mark Cuban not have done the deal, Mark Cuban would have fired a person who suggested it on the spot... Because he'd be certain that person has to be doing something in terms of narcotics."

The Los Angeles Lakers' extremely active trade deadline won't likely be remembered for adding a big man, but their most recent move after acquiring Luka Doncic should have Lakers fans optimistic about where the team is heading.
