Targets for Durant and Jokić
Durant needs 1,047 regular-season points to pass Kobe Bryant for fourth on the scoring list. He is also 73 field goals from overtaking Shaquille O'Neal for seventh and one forty-point game from becoming the tenth player with at least 75 such regular-season performances. Jokić needs two regular-season triple-doubles to reach 200 alongside Russell Westbrook, and twelve to pass Westbrook's total. Further targets are 1,991 points for 20,000, 1,023 rebounds for 10,000 and 920 assists for 7,000. These remain distances to achievements.
Keep the counting categories separate
Beginning his 24th season, James needs 560 regular-season points for 44,000 and 1,560 for 45,000. Another 76 assists would move him beyond Jason Kidd into third. Curry has made 4,898 three-pointers across the regular season and playoffs combined, leaving 102 to reach 5,000. That figure is not his regular-season total alone. James Harden is 661 regular-season points from 30,000, while DeMar DeRozan needs 289 for 27,000. NBA's overview identifies possibilities to watch rather than milestones already completed. Preseason production does not count towards the regular-season categories described here.
