After the party is the after party.
At least that was the case for LeBron James on Tuesday night in Los Angeles.
The initial party took place at Crypto.com Arena where James scored 38 points in the Lakers 133-130 loss to the Thunder that saw LeBron surpass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the NBA's all-time scoring leader.
James found himself just 36 points shy of the record entering the game, but hit a fadeaway stepback jumper at the end of the third quarter to set the new all-time mark of 38,388 career points.

There was certainly a party inside the arena after James' milestone. The game was momentarily stopped as NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and Abdul-Jabbar himself spoke at halfcourt. The latter gave LeBron a basketball signifying the historic achievement.
Celebrities also celebrated the King's achievement with Usher, Denzel Washington, Floyd Mayweather, Bad Bunny, Jay-Z, and Dwyane Wade among the A-listers in attendance sitting courtside. But that wasn't where the party ended.

Signage showing the record-breaking point total of 38,388 was everywhere at the event, including on a giant cake showing James' wearing a crown and the logs of the three teams he's played for in his career: The Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, and Lakers.
Eventually, James and his wife Savannah gave a toast to the crowd, with Savannah crediting her husband for all of his hard work and dedication. James credited Savannah, his mother Gloria, his family, and closest friends for not just the all-time scoring accomplishment, but all of his achievements on and off the court.
If the cake, photos, and videos of James at the party weren't enough, there was even a stuffed goat on display.
James and the Lakers are back in action on Thursday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, but LeBron is listed as out for that game with left ankle soreness.
