Kevin Durant this season itself has already claimed six spots and isn’t going to stop any soon. He’s dominating the scoring end and shutting down all his haters and doubters. KD would have been in the Top-10 ranks by now if it wasn’t for the injuries. But nothing can be changed and fortunately, the seven-footer sharp-shooter is now healthy and balling out.

Kevin Durant started off by passing Alex English in October on the all-time scoring list. Then he took down his childhood idol Vince Carter which was really a special moment for him. He didn’t just stop there and climbing the ladder passed Kevin Garnett, John Havlicek, Paul Pierce and Tim Duncan.

With months remaining for the season to wrap up Kevin Durant will surely claim some more places on the All-Time Scoring List. Some of the legends he’ll be passing to move close to the Top-10 zone are: Dominique Wilkins, Oscar Robertson and Hakeem Olajuwon.
