Kevin Durant undeniably holds the title of the greatest scorer in modern NBA. His scoring prowess comes from his versatile skill set, remarkable shooting range, and the strategic use of his athleticism. Furtermore, with years of experience and consistency, Durant stands alone at the pinnacle of scoring in the NBA. Additionally, multiple rings, finals MVP and all star MVP awards solidify his case much more.

Overall, Durant averages 27.28 points per game. Furthermore, with four scoring titles, he ranks fourth all-time in the category. The only players ahead of him are Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain, and Elgin Baylor, making Durant’s scoring prowess all the more remarkable.

Can this be the lucky season for Kevin Durant?

Kevin Durant’s impressive career places him in the top 15 of the all-time NBA scoring list. Presently, he is on the verge of surpassing Hakeem Olajuwon to claim the 12th spot on this prestigious list. Going into the matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James, Durant stands at 26,910 career points. He has the opportunity to secure this position either during his clash with LA or in the game against the Utah Jazz on October 29.

While the prospect of KD and LeBron facing off for the first time in five years is headline-worthy, there’s a fascinating narrative that adds intrigue to Durant’s pursuit.

Ex-Cavalier Compares Playing With “Unbelievable” Victor Wembanyama to LeBron James

In 2016, LeBron James, as Cleveland Cavalier, overtook Dominique Wilkins on the scoring list, elevating himself to the 12th spot. The instance sparks an intriguing question: will Durant achieve a similar feat as LeBron? Back then, LeBron and the Cavs engaged in a thrilling battle against the Golden State Warriors, ultimately bringing the city of Cleveland its first-ever NBA championship.

With a little luck, Suns might actually make it

The Phoenix Suns have yet to clinch a championship title. In the 2023-24 season, the Suns proudly flaunt what is arguably the league’s most formidable offensive backcourt. Their big-three consists Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal. What sets them apart is that they are far from an ordinary trio. Last season, each of the three prolific scorers individually averaged over 22 points per game.

Adding to their lineup is the championship-winning coach, Frank Vogel. Following the conclusion of the last season, the Suns parted ways with Monty Williams and brought in the coach who led the Lakers to a championship in 2020.

Furthermore, this season, the Suns have enjoyed ample time for thorough preseason preparations, providing them with a solid foundation for a potentially long and successful campaign.
