Kevin Durant reaches 28,000 points in fewer games than LeBron James

If not for the many lower extremity injuries that caused him to miss hundreds of games in his career, Kevin Durant would assuredly have 30,000 regular season points already. On Sunday, the Phoenix Suns forward finally joined the 28,000-point club when he drilled a three-pointer against the Orlando Magic, becoming one of 10 players in history to reach the milestone.

Durant also became the fourth-fastest player, in terms of games, to reach the 28,000 mark, doing so in 1,025 games. In comparison, Wilt Chamberlain took 825 games, Michael Jordan 886 and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar needed 1,008. Durant also became the fastest active player to reach the milestone, surpassing contemporary LeBron James, who needed 1,033 games to reach 28,000 points.
