LeBron James stopped his dinner to congratulate Dirk Nowitzki on 30,000 points

From one GOAT to another.

On Tuesday night, Dirk Nowitzki hit 30,000 career points, becoming one of just six NBA players to do so. Everyone was proud, including LeBron James.

The King dropped everything he was doing, which was eating dinner, to congratulate Nowitzki.

“Very efficient tonight!” He praised Dirk. “There was no way I was missing this moment, congratulations.”

As James signed off he said, “Hopefully I can join you at some point big fella.”

With more than 28,000 current points, it’s almost certain he will.
