Kobe Bryant is already considered one of the greatest players to ever play in the NBA, and one of the most gifted scorers. Against the Sacramento Kings, Kobe reached another milestone that very few have.

With a short fadeaway jumper over Ben McLemore, via the Los Angeles Lakers Vine page, Kobe scored career point number 33,000, a mark only Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Karl Malone have reached.

Kobe had an excellent first half for the Lakers, scoring 18 points in 19 minutes, though it didn’t help the team as they were down big to the Kings. Even still, Kobe continues to prove why he is a legend in the NBA, still making noise as he finishes out his career.

This wasn’t Kobe’s only highlight, however, as he also turned back the clock for an outstanding alley-oop from Jordan Clarkson and giving the fans of Sacramento one last show in his final game there.
