The 'NBA all-time scoring leaders' quiz

Heading into the NBA offseason, one of the biggest questions wasn’t if the Phoenix Suns would trade Kevin Durant but where? Now we know , as the 36-year-old, two-time NBA champion and four-time scoring champion is headed to the Houston Rockets in exchange for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the 10th pick in the 2025 NBA draft and five second-round draft picks. There was posturing from both sides leading up to the deal, with Durant listing the few teams he’d apparently be willing to accept a trade to and the Suns saying they’d do their best to honor his wishes but would still get the best deal for themselves. While Durant is no longer a player for an organization to build around long-term, he should be a helpful piece for a young team that finished second in the Western Conference but were ousted in the first round by the Golden State Warriors. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Durant is a sure-fire future Hall of Famer with 15 All-Star appearances, 11 All-NBA selections and two NBA Finals MVPs to go with his two NBA titles and currently sits in eighth place on the Association’s all-time scoring list. With that being said, can you name players with the most points in NBA history?

Good luck!
