Playing his second game tonight with his new Suns team, Kevin Durant took the opportunity to continue his rise in the hierarchy of the best scorers in history. He is now 13th!
Sorry Oscar Robertsonbut you will have to leave your place.
Author of 20 points on the floor of the Bulls on Friday evening, KD overtook The Big O in the ranking of the best all-time scorers, and therefore finds himself 13th with a total of 26,727 career points.
KD rises up for the middy to pass Oscar Robertson for 13th on the all-time scoring list!

Kevin Durant now has Hakeem Olajuwon in the viewfinder, The Dream having only 219 points ahead of KD. Suffice to say that it is only a matter of time before Durant passes 12th.
And when we take a closer look at the standings, we realize that the Suns superstar is only 1,869 points from the eighth place occupied by Shaquille O’Neal. Olajuwon, Elvin Hayes, Moses Malone, Carmelo Anthony and Shaq should all drop a rank by the end of next season, provided of course that KD avoids the infirmary box…
