Kevin Durant keeps adding accomplishments to his resume. He is one of the best scorers in the league and has added his name to the NBA history books for yet another time. The forward has moved to the 8th rank on the league’s all-time leading scorer list. On Wednesday, the three-time champion successfully passed basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal in the record book.
Shaquille O’Neal always shows love to players and their achievements. Shaq had a sweet message for Durant. After KD passed the veteran, a video of Shaq congratulating the player was played in the arena. On TNT’s broadcast, the star of Inside the NBA challenged Durant to get to the number one spot on the list. This is what Shaq said:
Congratulations for passing me to become the 8th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. Well deserved. But you know this doesn’t stop here… See if you can get two number one. Shaquille O’Neal via Inside the NBA.
