LeBron James joined Michael Jordan as the only players over 40 to have scored 40-plus points in a single NBA game on Thursday, as the Los Angeles Lakers held off a comeback attempt from the Golden State Warriors to win 120-112.

With this performance, James (40 years, 39 days old) joined Jordan as the only 40-year-olds to ever notch a 40-point game, according to StatMuse. Jordan accomplished the feat in 2003 with the Washington Wizards, scoring 43 points at 40 years and four days old.

James then stepped up down the stretch when the Lakers' 26-point lead dwindled to five in the fourth quarter. Golden State trailed by only six when James drained his sixth 3-point
