Over his last 12 games, James is averaging 22.5 points, 6.8 rebounds, 7.1 assists and 4.4 turnovers.

James, who turned 33 on December 30, surpassed Kobe Bryant as the youngest player to hit the 30,000 figure.

Now playing for the Milwaukee Bucks, Matthew Dellavedova played for three seasons in Cleveland, including two alongside LeBron James, so he surely has a solid bond with the four-time MVP, and not just someone whom James had met one July night in a bar and had a short chitchat with.

Going into Tuesday's game needing just seven points to reach the career milestone, James took to Instagram earlier in the day to congratulate himself in a post that read like a letter to his younger self.

Savannah: "Congratulations my love, on being the youngest National Basketball Association player to score 30,000 points in your career".

LeBron James is on the verge of hitting a major career milestone.

James finished with 28 points on 10-of-23 shooting from the field in the Cavaliers' 114-102 loss to San Antonio, boosting his total to 30,021. There are levels to this game, and once you reach a certain level, the struggle is more internal than external.

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich praised LeBron prior to the game, but also recognized this latest accomplishment shouldn't even come as a surprise at this point.

"Well, if he stays healthy and he plays as long as he wants to play, No. 1 or No. 2", Wade told ESPN. "We love you and keep doing what you do, because you got it". "Just a great, great competitor and a great player". The first to salute James for his feat? He's too busy congratulating himself on his next personal achievement.

"Wanna be one of the first to Congratulate you on this accomplishment/achievement tonight that you'll reach!" James wrote in the caption of a young photo of himself.
