#TBT: LeBron made his 25-point NBA debut on this day in 2003

LeBron James was the original "baby-faced assassin" 12 years ago.

The first overall draft pick made his NBA debut against the Sacramento Kings on Oct. 29, 2003, dropping 25 points to set the league record for a prep-to-pro rookie in his first game.

He rounded out his stat line with nine assists, six rebounds, and four steals in the 106-92 loss.

Look at 18-year-old LeBron:

His hairline was flourishing.

His sweatband was average-sized.

His shoe game was on point, rocking the Nike Zoom Generation "1st Game."

Modern LeBron may have less hair and a larger sweatband to disguise it, but he still has killer shoes and picked up "The Silencer."
