Kobe joins a select group of NBA players to score more than 32,000 points in the league.
In a career full of incredible achievements, Los Angeles Lakers guard Kobe Bryant reached his latest Tuesday night by surpassing 32,000 career points in the NBA. The future Hall of Famer is one of just four players to reach that number, joining Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone and Michael Jordan in a special group.
Bryant scored 28 points against the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday to get the milestone in the final minutes of the game. And in typical Kobe fashion, the benchmark was surpassed on a highly-difficult fadeaway jumper where he also happened to get fouled:
Bryant hit a number of difficult shots in the final quarter of the Lakers' 114-109 win over the Hawks on Tuesday. His game-leading 28 points came on 10-of-18 shooting, making it one of the more efficient nights of the season thus far for the 36-year-old. Here are the full highlights beyond the big milestone bucket:
Even at his age, Kobe remains a fascinating offensive force capable of scoring in a dizzying number of ways. He's become the primary reason to watch an otherwise poor Lakers team, which is just 2-9 after beating Atlanta, and showed why with a strong, efficient performance Tuesday to enter one of basketball's most revered and exclusive groups. Now the big question is simply how much higher he'll get on that list.
