LeBron James Passes Michael Jordan For Most Consecutive Games With Double-Digit Scoring In First Quarter Of Friday’s Game Against Pelicans

It didn’t take long for LeBron James to pass Michael Jordan’s record of 866 straight games with double-digit scoring. In fact, it was extremely fast.

James accomplished the milestone in the first quarter of Friday’s game against the New Orleans Pelicans, going absolutely berzerk in the first half of the quarter. James scored nine of the Cavaliers’ first nineteen points from the floor, having his way in the paint. James didn’t even attempt a shot from outside the key to break the record, snatching the feat from Michael Jordan in a definitive fashion.

Check out the record-breaking basket:
