LeBron James becomes the NBA's all-time leading scorer on Christmas Day.

With his 13th point during Saturday’s marquee matchup with the Brooklyn Nets on Christmas Day in Los Angeles, LeBron James passed Kobe Bryant to claim the all-time career scoring lead on Christmas Day.

The second-quarter bucket provided James with his 396th and 397th points, leaving him atop the field after 74 years of NBA games on Christmas Day. He tied Bryant with a right-wing fadeaway earlier in the quarter, then passed him on a layup assisted by Russell Westbrook with 4:13 to play in the half.

James — who finished with 39 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, three steals and a block — has now played in a league-high-tying 16 games on Christmas Day (a mark he shares with Bryant), and has made the most field goals (150) in Christmas Day history. He broke a tie with Kevin Durant for the 3-point lead, raising that mark to 28, and passed Dolph Schayes for third on the holiday’s free throws made list, with 94 after shooting 8-for-9 at the line Saturday.

Teammate Westbrook also surpassed Bryant on Saturday — for third in Christmas assists, with 11 pushing his career total to 93. He added 13 points and 12 rebounds to join Oscar Robertson as the only players with multiple Christmas Day triple-doubles.

Patty Mills rocked the Nets for 8 -- often crucial -- 3-pointers on Saturday.

Across the court, Nets guard Patty Mills set a Christmas Day single-game record with eight 3s. He totaled a career-high-tying 34 points on 11-for-17 shooting, including 8-for-13 from range, with seven assists and no turnovers.
