The Phoenix Suns didn’t shine and lost to the Orlando Magic, but Kevin Durant, even on a dark night, reached a historic milestone in the NBA
Last Sunday, the 28th, the Phoenix Suns visited the Orlando Magic and I expected to count on a victory, but that was not what happened. Despite the unexpected defeat, Kevin Durant reached another historic milestone in NBA. The winger didn’t have such a brilliant performance, with 15 points scored, but it was enough to place him on a select list of basketball legends.
With his score against the Magic, Durant became the tenth player to reach the 28,000-point barrier in the NBA. Despite the great feat, it was not a good night for the veteran, who was very well marked by Orlando’s defensive line and had seven turnovers. With the result, the franchise broke a fast of almost 10 years without beating the team with the number 35.
Now, Kevin Durant has 28,003 points in his entire career, ranking 10th among the greatest scorers of all time. There is an expectation that the player will surpass Carmelo Anthonywith 28,289, until the end of the regular season and stay in 9th place, with an eye on taking the position of Shaquille O’Neal.
