“Congratulations my love on being the youngest NBA player to score 30–30,000 points in your career!” Savannah exclaimed. “I am so proud of you, beyond proud. I know the work that you put in day in and day out to work at this high level and I am just so proud of you and I hope that you are also proud of this moment. It’s a huge accomplishment and you should celebrate yourself and be very proud of yourself. We love you and keep doing what you do because you got it!”

Prior to reaching the 30k club with basketball greats, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain, Dirk Nowitzki, Kobe Bryant, James took to Instagram to write a younger letter to himself for the achievement.

Wanna be one of the first to Congratulate you on this accomplishment/achievement tonight that you’ll reach! Only a handful has reach/seen it too and while I know it’s never been a goal of yours from the beginning try(please try) to take a moment for yourself on how you’ve done it! The House you’re about to be apart of has only 6 seats in it(as of now) but 1 more will be added and you should be very proud and honored to be invited inside. There’s so many people to thank who has help this even become possible(so thank them all) and when u finally get your moment(alone) to yourself smile, look up to the higher skies and say THANK YOU! So with that said, Congrats again Young King 🤴🏾! 1 Love! #striveforgreatness🚀 #thekidfromakron👑
