When is LeBron James' birthday? Top 5 celebrities who share birthdays with NBA's all-time points leader

With LeBron James breaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's longstanding scoring record, fans have been wondering "When was LeBron James born?" As it turns out, James recently celebrated his 38th birthday on Dec. 30, when he dropped 47 points on the Atlanta Hawks.

While not all of these celebrities were born in 1984 like James, let's take a look at five celebrities who share birthdays with the NBA's all-time leading scorer.

#5, Sandy Koufax

Sandy Koufax is considered one of the best pitchers in the history of professional baseball. Koufax was born in 1935 and entered the MLB as a teenager just like James did with the NBA. He was a seven-time All-Star and four-time World Series champion. In addition, he won the coveted Cy Young Award three times.

He also holds the distinction of pitching four no-hitters and a perfect game. At 36 years old, he became the youngest player in MLB history to be inducted to the Hall of Fame.

#4, Kim Taehyung

Kim Taehyung, better known as V from South Korean group BTS, is one of the biggest stars in music today. Born in 1995, the 27-year-old has made quite the name for himself alongside his bandmates. In recent years, the group has continued to reach new levels of global stardom, earning them widespread admiration.

Despite being just 27 years old, the young star lives in a massive $4.55 million apartment in Seoul Korea thanks to his global success.

#3, Tyrese Gibson

Tyrese Gibson was born in 1978, making him just a couple years older than LeBron James.

Gibson has shown over the years that he's more than capable of both singing and acting at a professional level. After getting his start in the music industry and hosting "MTV Jams" in the late 1990s, Gibson wound up showcasing his abilities on the big screen. In 2001 he appeared in his first role, which led to several others, including the "Fast & Furious" franchise and the "Transformers" franchise.

#2, Carson Wentz

NFL quarterback Carson Wentz was born in 1992. At one point, he was considered one of the best young quarterbacks in the nation. He won two consecutive NCAA FCS national championships, as well as two distinctions as an All-American.

After being drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles, he experienced success, although his career has been largely defined by injuries since joining the league. While he has shown fans what he can do when he's healthy, injuries have continued to plague him.

#1, Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods, widely considered to be one of the greatest athletes in United States history, was born in 1975. He has earned the distinction of being one of the greatest golfers in human history, as well as Golf Hall of Fame honors.

For 683 weeks, Woods was ranked as the best PGA golfer in the world. He has won 82 PGA Tour titles and 41 European Tour titles. As the arguable greatest golfer of all time, it seems only fitting he shares a birthday with LeBron James.
