Inside The Lakers Locker Room With LeBron's Family After Breaking The Scoring Record 🐐

With a captain's record eclipsed, LeBron's family had messages for him to honor his extraordinary achievement. Hi, my love. I am so proud of you. I witnessed day in and day out the hard work, the sacrifice and the professionalism that you put into this game every single day. I know how hard you work. I know that this was not something that you set out to do, but you've done it and you should congratulate yourself. You should celebrate yourself. You deserve all the flowers. Congratulations, Dad. I love you so much. Congratulations. I'm so proud of you. I love you. Keep it up. Congratulations, Daddy, for being the all-time scorer in the NBA and love you. Just talk about the discipline and the commitment and the drive that you've had to sacrifice to get to this point. I mean, I've sacrificed a lot. And the most thing that I've sacrificed, that it is very tough, is sacrificing time with my family, you know, time away from my kids, time away from my wife, my mom. And the best thing that they gave me was the ability to do that and tell me, don't worry about us. Go get your goals. Go work on your journey. Go, you know, the things that you want to do in life. We're here for you. So, you know, it takes a lot, man. It takes a lot of dedication, a lot of things that you want to do that you can do because you want to be as great as you can be. You want to be the greatest to ever play the game or be ranked up there with some of the greatest to ever play. So it doesn't make, it still doesn't feel real, you know, for me to be at this position, be in this point in my life. But I give it all back to them. They sit, they right over there, you know, center court, my family. I got my boys here from high school. You know, without them, I wouldn't be able to do this. I'm so happy for you. I'm so very proud of you. You know, since you were young, all the goals you've set, you've accomplished on and off the court. Some weren't even goals, but yet here you are again, exceeding the expectation. Continue to strive for greatness and keep soaring to new heights. Love you. You know, you've got a lot of people here tonight that have known you forever. What does it mean to you to have those people here? And I wouldn't be who I am today without the support of everyone that I got in town for this. You've reached all these heights, there's still more for you. Yes, thank you. Back it up. Love you, brother. You got to talk a lot. Yeah, absolutely. Love you, brother. There's still more for you. Just to have people in the crowd today that has been along this journey with me from day one. Like I said, I wouldn't want it no other way. Six, my dog, man. Truly an honor to be watching it, you know, as a fan, watching it as a friend, being a part of it as a teammate. So I know it's a huge accomplishment for you. So congrats again, brother. Hopefully one day, you know, I'll be in a conversation trying to break the record. So congrats, bro. Congrats, champ. Man, keep inspiring. Keep raising the bar, kid. Man, keep defying what it means to be great. I know you probably never could have imagined this one. But sometimes we think back to the things that didn't make sense at the time. And now they do. On this night, those that were able to share their congratulations included LeBron's longtime friends and high school teammates. It's amazing to be able to witness, you know, from where you came from to where you are now. What else you represent, everything else that you carry with yourself, how you handle your family and take care of others and everything that's going on in the foundation. But you stay locked in and stay focused on the game and able to perform every night and reach this point. Man, it's unbelievable. I know firsthand the discipline, the dedication and the sacrifices you made to get to this moment. And it was all out of love and respect for the game. Everybody thanks you for just not for the basketball player you are, but for the person you are. Thank you. I'm happy for you. Happy for your family. You keep rewriting history, defying the odds. I know you're just going to keep going. Enjoy watching this journey. 20 years in, you still surprised me, man. So congratulations. I love you, brother. You've already said that you didn't come here to press, but we've talked about all the people that are here and all the emotion. You're dressed for the occasion. Did you come here tonight to set to make sure you set the record? Well, yeah, because my boys leave on a red eye tomorrow night, so. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I mean, I just had the mindset I had to have the mindset and I dress for the occasion, like you said. And I put on a headband because that's where the journey started. And I would have had to pay for another room in a hotel for another night for my boys. No, but tomorrow's not promised. And if I had an opportunity to do it tonight and I was going to try to make it happen. I had dreams every day of playing in the NBA. I had dreams every day of being an inspiration to so many people. Up to so many athletes and so many people along my journey, and they gave me the inspiration and they allow my dreams to not die. One of his sons, Ronnie O'Brien, that way, if they're involved, he'll be happier than he was on the day that he set the record. Congratulations, LeBron, you earned it.
