With 20 points at half-time, LeBron James challenged himself to break the NBA's all-time scoring record when speaking to his two sons during the interval.
James needed 37 points on the night to break Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's record, which has been standing for almost 40 years, with the legend in attendance to see the clash against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
After a strong first-half performance, it was evident that the Los Angeles Lakers were going to attempt to feed James the ball in an attempt to pull it off - with it also being their best chance of scoring.
