Los Angeles Lakers star James moved ahead of Jordan into fourth in the NBA’s all-time points list when he overhauled the former Chicago Bull great’s total of 32,292 on Wednesday. It is unlikely to end the debate over who is the greatest of all time, though, with Jordan still ahead in championship wins – six to James’ three – and MVP awards – five to James’ four. To mark James surpassing Jordan’s points haul, two Omnisport writers make the case for who is basketball’s greatest ever....

The Cavaliers forward returned to Miami to rehab knee and back injuries, according to ESPN.com. James has missed the Cavs’ past six games and has been absent on the team’s recent road trips to Charlotte and Philadelphia, as well as a home game against the Mavericks.

Arguably one of the finest defenders of his generation, Ledley made his debut in 1999 and went on to make 264 league appearances, becoming the first Tottenham captain in 9 years to lead the side to silverware by winning the Carling Cup in 2008. The centre-back also represented England 21 times and started the first game of the 2010 FIFA World Cup against the USA. Speaking on his participation at the Forum, Ledley King said, “After hearing great things, I’m looking forward to speaking on a subject which is very important to me, as well as catching up with Edwin, Gaizka and Edu, who I have great memories of playing against....

“But there are two details still unknown: Why did Hutchinson & Meadows have a falling out, as Matthews told Cheney, & when? And who is the House GOP member who urged Hutchinson to choose the path that would allow her to meet “the mirror test”? FIN,” tweeted Lisa Rubin, who serves as a legal analyst for MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow show. The tweet from Rubin comes shortly after the Select Committee investigating the January 6 Capitol riots released new documents, including the transcripts of interviews conducted with former White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews, and Hutchinson, who served as an aide to former President Donald Trump’s Chief of Staff Mark Meadows....

Discussions about the running back returning to the field with the Patriots in 2016 have begun, although they are in the “infant stages” at this point in the offseason, the Boston Herald reported Wednesday. According to the report, Blount and the Patriots have shown mutual interest in negotiating a new contract, but he could still hit free agency beginning March 9.

The UK’s physical game chart covers all console games and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening is the first Zelda game to top the chart since Ocarina of Time in 2003. The bestselling Zelda games are hardly predictable and Link’s Awakening was an oddity in the series when it originally released, so it’s a bit surprising to see it top the charts. Link’s Awakening was the first Zelda game to not include the princess and introduced many mechanics which have become synonymous with the games today, one of the most popular being fishing....

In a study published in Environmental Pollution, a team led by Andrew Turner, from Portsmouth University in the U.K. analyzed 50 pieces of weathered LEGO bricks found washed up on the shores of Cornwall, southwest England. Pieces were cleaned, measured and weighed. Researchers studied their chemical characteristics to check the age of each block, basing their calculations on elements in the bricks that are no longer used in the production process....

To note, there is one consistent aspect to unlocking the vairous Captial Ships: each vessel requires that a significant number of studs be spent. More specifically, these impressive battlestations cost between 2 million and 5 million studs, and players that want to unlock them all may need to put some effort toward farming studs in LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga has hundreds of playable characters pulled from all nine movies in the franchise. While playing through story mode, players are stuck using the characters who are relevant for the story. For example, players aren’t going to be playing as Darth Vader when going through the Phantom Menace levels, and they shouldn’t expect to see Qui-Gon Jinn when playing The Force Awakens stages. However, Free Play mode lets players mix and match characters, bringing characters together who never interacted with each other in the movies....

Symptoms The symptoms of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome begin in early childhood, typically before the age of 4. Seizures are the most prominent symptom, and most children who have LGS may also develop cognitive dysfunction, delays in reaching developmental milestones, and behavior problems. LGS continues into adulthood, but symptoms generally change with age. Seizures One of the hallmarks of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome is several types of seizures that occur frequently—as often as several times a day—which is more often than in most other types of epilepsy....

The usual explanation for Estrada’s victory is that the voters believed his on-screen image as the savior of the poor. He managed to convince the masses that he was one of them. I don’t buy this reasoning. For one thing, Estrada hasn’t made a movie in many years, and it’s obvious that he isn’t poor. Like a true populist, he understoodthe symbols and gestures that mattered to those on society’s lower rungs....

They have no illusions about getting her back. The DeBoers fought a long legal battle to keep Dan and Cara Schmidt from reclaiming the child they conceived, but once she was gone they stopped filing court appeals. They didn’t want to compound the child’s suffering by uprooting her yet again, says Suellyn Scarnecchia, the Michigan lawyer who represented them. They also recognized that their odds of winning were slim. The DeBoers did hope to stay in touch with Jessica, and two of their supporters tried to clear the way....

The Cavs hit 30 regular-season losses for the second consecutive season after sneaking just under that mark in LeBron James’ first two seasons back in town. How much of a concern should that be as James attempts to lead a franchise to a fourth straight trip to the NBA Finals? After all, Cleveland finished 51-31 last season and made the NBA Finals before losing in five games to the Warriors....

There’s no arena in the league, including his two home courts in Cleveland and Miami, that has been more significant to James’ NBA life than the TD Garden. On Sunday, with a Game 7 against the Celtics lined up in the Eastern Conference finals, James will once again take the parquet floor with his season on the line — and with the next turn of his career, the fate of his franchise and perhaps the direction of the entire league all at play....

LeBron James, who doesn’t tweet that often compared to some athletes, made sure he didn’t miss a golden opportunity to blast teammate Kevin Love for his shoes worn in a high school photo shoot. James raises a valid question. The photo is 10 years old, but my goodness, there had to be better options out there for Love, who at the time was the No. 1 recruit in the country....

The three-time NBA champion has been connected to the Cavs, Lakers, 76ers, Rockets and even the Celtics in free agency, but it appears Los Angeles is in the lead for James’ services. LeBron will ultimately change the landscape of the league with his latest decision, and he may move quickly once he’s able to begin negotiating his next deal. Sporting News will keep you up to date on the latest deals, rumors and speculation below....

Durant, you’ll remember, infamously joined the Warriors after his Thunder team botched a 3-1 lead in the Western Conference finals, opting to get that ever-elusive NBA title. The move was heavily criticized: Former teammate Russell Westbrook called him a cupcake, and talking head Stephen A. Smith called the move “weak.” MORE: We’re seeing exactly why Kevin Durant is a Warrior Now, as Durant and the Warriors aim for their first title together, another player has joined the fray: Cavs superstar LeBron James....

James spoke out on racial oppression after appearing for the Lakers in a 108-104 NBA scrimmage defeat to the Mavericks. In a passionate and erudite assessment of the state of American life, James said he and his teammates were firmly behind the drive for accountability after Taylor’s killing in March. She died of gunshot wounds after three officers from the Louisville Metro Police Department executed a no-knock search warrant on her Louisville home, resulting in an exchange of fire between her boyfriend and the officers....
