Kareem Abdul-Jabbar breaks silence on LeBron James breaking his scoring record: ‘I wanted to lead…'
NBA history was rewritten when Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James overtook his former teammate Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the league's all-time leading scorer with a fadeaway jumper. Despite losing out to the Oklahoma City Thunder that night, that particular regular-season game back in February 2023 caught attention. Recent comments by Jabbar on the events of that night have highlighted the moment once again.

(AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill, File) Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's reaction to LeBron James' all time scoring record Surprisingly enough, Jabbar was there to witness the moment in person and gave James a standing ovation the moment he surpassed 38,387 points, as reported by The Sports Rush. In a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Jabbar spoke about the moment once again. 'LeBron has earned it. He's worked hard. I mean, more power to him… You know,' the six-time MVP player remarked. 'I didn't really play to… uh, deal with records. I wanted to lead my team to the championship. I was fortunate enough to be on the winning team six times, and I was Finals MVP twice, and I'm satisfied with that,' he said as the crowd cheered him on. The second part of his statement has made many wonder whether the famous rivalry between James and Jabbar is still prevalent. Although he did not directly dismiss James's achievement, many viewed this as a difference in approach and perspective between the two. LeBron and Jabbar's strained relationship The strained tension between James and Jabbar has been spoken about for quite some time now. Although both players are legends who have led the same team during different eras, a difference in off-court attitude between the pair has always been evident. It appears that Jabbar isn't particularly a fan of the way James conducts himself off the court. His social media post showing Spiderman-pointing meme and 'big balls' celebration after a clutch shot are reflections of this tension between the two. '🤷🏾♂️ Help me out folks,' James had written in the caption. 'Why do you need to do a stupid, childish dance and disrespect the other team on the court?' the Basketball Forever Facebook page reported Jabbar as having said in response to James' 'big balls' dance. James, however, had clarified that matters were fine between the two NBA icons in a 2023 interview with NBA Today. With contribution from Stuti Gupta

Kesha Shows Support for Cassie Ventura Following Diddy Trial Verdict: ‘I Believe You'
After Sean 'Diddy' Combs was found not guilty of sex-trafficking, despite days of Cassie Ventura testifying to the contrary, the singer has received support from someone who knows what it's like to have their sexual assault claims play out in court: Kesha. Just hours after the Bad Boy Records founder was acquitted on sex-trafficking and racketeering charges Wednesday (July 2) — with a New York jury only convicting him on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution — Kesha shared a message of solidarity with Ventura on X. 'Cassie, I believe you,' she wrote. 'I love you.' More from Billboard Cassie's Lawyer Calls Diddy's Defense Closing Arguments 'Repugnant' Following Verdict Bad Bunny's 'NUEVAYol' Video Arrives on Fourth of July With Pro-Immigrant Message: 'Together We Are Stronger' BLACKPINK Is 'Ready to Jump' in What Looks to Be a New Music Teaser: Listen The pop star added, 'Your strength is a beacon for every survivor.' The jury's decision came after two days of deliberations, putting an end to a seven-week trial that found federal prosecutors attempting to convict Diddy on allegations that he'd spent years running a criminal enterprise built around his own sexual gratification. Ventura took the stand for several days in May and detailed how the disgraced mogul allegedly abused and trafficked her for the sake of his 'freak off' parties. Diddy has denied all of the accusations levied against him in the trial from the beginning. He now awaits sentencing, facing a maximum of 20 years behind bars for the prostitution charge. Kesha has previously found herself in the middle of legal proceedings involving allegations of sexual assault, with the singer accusing producer Dr. Luke in 2014 of drugging her and raping her at a 2005 party, something he vehemently denies. The claims sparked a yearslong legal battle that finally ended when the two parties reached a settlement in 2023 — but Kesha has been open about the toll her experience has taken on her personally and artistically. The 'Tik Tok' hitmaker is now gearing up to release . (Period) — her very first independent album after finishing her contract with Dr. Luke's Kemosabe Records — on July 4. 'It's been all of my vision, all of my words, a lot of hard work, a lot of joy,' Kesha said of the project on The Jennifer Hudson Show in May. 'Really coming back home to myself and feeling what freedom really looks like, feels like, sounds like.' As for Ventura, the model recently welcomed her third baby with husband Alex Fine. The birth came just a couple of weeks after she finished her time on the stand in Diddy's trial. In response to the hip-hop titan's partial acquittal, Ventura's attorney's said in a statement, 'By coming forward with her experience, Cassie has left an indelible mark on both the entertainment industry and the fight for justice … This case proved that change is long overdue, and we will continue to fight on behalf of survivors.'
