LeBron James was just 36 points from making NBA history on Tuesday, and celebrities filled the house to see the all-time record broken.
James, 38, hit a fadeaway jumper late in the 3rd quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, bringing his career 38,388 points to 40 years.
The Crypto.com Arena was packed with celebs trying to catch history, including Jay-Z, Denzel Washington and Adele’s boyfriend Rich Paul – just days after Jay-Z enjoyed a Grammy Night toast with Adele.
Jay-Z was spotted on the sidelines in a black sweatshirt that read “This is Black Magic,” seemingly referring to LeBron’s record-breaking performance, seated next to Corey Gamble.
The rap icon and music mogul was also sporting a gold watch as she was spotted holding a drink at court for the momentous event.
