In nearly eight decades the NBA, only seven players have hit 30,000 career points: LeBron James, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Dirk Nowitzki and Wilt Chamberlain. Save for James — who is still active — the rest are in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

Phoenix Suns superstar Kevin Durant has 29,974 career points. The Republic will update his progress leading up to 30K as the Suns face the Thunder.

Kevin Durant reached plenty of milestones during his time in Oklahoma City. On Wednesday, the Phoenix Suns' star has a chance to achieve another significant one in the arena where he spent eight seasons -- if he happens to play in the game.
