James Harden Surges Past Shaquille O’Neal—Is the Top 5 NBA Scoring Record Next?

Then comes Kevin Durant (31,458 as of Monday), who passed Chamberlain last week for seventh place and, like Harden, is showing few signs of slowing down with 26.1 points per game in his age 37 season.

LeBron James is the only other active player in the top 10. His all-time record of 42,601 points and counting is almost certainly out of Harden’s reach.
