LeBron James Passes Sam Jones for 6th on NBA Finals Scoring List in Game 3

LeBron James has spent this postseason rewriting record books, and that continued in Game 3 Wednesday.

According to Tom Withers of the Associated Press, the Cleveland Cavaliers star passed former Boston Celtics star Sam Jones for sixth place for the most points in NBA Finals history.

Jerry West has the all-time record with 1,679 in his career.

James entered the year with 1,079 career points in seven NBA Finals series, but 57 combined points in the first two games and eight quick points in the first few minutes Wednesday helped him move into sixth place on the list.
