Russell Westbrook, the most prolific point guard in NBA history
Four minutes from the end of this duel between the Suns and the Kings, Russell Westbrook attacks the rim and makes a layup. A basket that doesn’t change anything at the end of the match, with another defeat for Sacramento, but important for the legend “Brody” because it allows him to overtake Oscar Robertson etc to become the most prolific point guard in NBA history and scoring.
The former MVP finished the game with 17 points, 9 rebounds and 6 assists in 26 minutes, and now has 26,711 points to his credit, which allows him to be a little ahead of the legend of the Cincinnati Royals.
“He continues to break records” underlined by Doug Christie. “Rass is a phenomenon of nature. He still wants to play as hard as possible as he enters his 18th season. I’ve always been a fan of his and it’s an honor to coach him.”

Stephen Curry is not far behind…
However, Russell Westbrook’s new record could fall in the near future since then Stephen Curry it’s not that far from the Kings players. The Warriors star currently has 26,103 career points and could therefore overtake his Sacramento counterpart this season.
On the all-time list, Russell Westbrook ranks 15th among all-time leading scorers behind 26,946 units Hakeem Olajuwonwhich the 2017 MVP could therefore surpass this season.
In the twilight of his career, the 37-year-old continues to climb the stat books after becoming the last week the seventh best passer in history by going further Magic Johnson and the fourteenth player to reach the 2,000 career interception milestone.
