Stephen Curry passes Oscar Robertson on NBA all-time scoring list, Digi Mart USA News: Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry continues to climb the all-time NBA scoring charts. Curry hit a 3-pointer with 7:03 left in the first quarter of Thursday’s home game against the Miami Heat to score his 26,711th career point.
With that basket, he moved ahead of Hall of Famer Oscar Robertson, who has 26,710 points, for No. 17 on the all-time scoring list. The milestone came in a game at home for Golden State.
Just six days earlier, Curry scored 31 points in a 112-95 Emirates NBA Cup win over the Los Angeles Lakers. That performance allowed him to pass Dominique Wilkins (26,668) for No. 18 on the list.
Curry now trails Denver Nuggets guard DeMar DeRozan (26,775) for No. 16. The two are expected to compete this season to see who passes No. 15 Hakeem Olajuwon (26,946) first.
Curry has scored at least 1,630 points in five of his last six seasons. He scored 1,142 points last season but played only 43 games due to injury.
If he approaches that 1,600-point mark in the 2026-27 season, he would likely pass No. 14 Russell Westbrook (27,176), No. 13 Elvin Hayes (27,313) and No. 12 Moses Malone (27,490) before the season ends.
