LeBron James made history recently against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The King finally became the NBA’s all-time scoring leader. He surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s tally and received a lot of praise from everyone around the globe.

It led to former NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal getting James to admit that he is now the greatest basketball player of all time. While many congratulated LeBron for his achievement, there was one person who shockingly didn’t celebrate it.

It was surprisingly none other than his teammate Anthony Davis, who won a ring with LeBron James back in 2020.
