Stephen Curry is just one far from the NBA's all-time record for the highest number of regular-season three-pointers in NBA history, and it's no surprise that Curry will surpass Ray Allen in the Warriors' game against the Knicks and become the first in NBA history in this statistic. So, in addition to the number of three-point shots, what other NBA all-time regular season total records are expected to be broken?
The NBA's all-time regular-season scoring record is currently held by "Sky Hook" Abdul-Jabbar, who has scored a total of 38,387 points in 1,560 regular-season games in his NBA career, more than 1,400 points ahead of second-place Karl Malone, and the highest career regular-season scoring total among active players is LeBron James, who has scored 35,787 points in 1,326 regular season games. James, who currently ranks third in NBA history in terms of total scoring, is still 2,600 points away from Abdul-Jabbar, and judging by James' average of 27.0 points per game in the regular season so far, james needs 97 more regular-season games to break this NBA record even after maintaining such efficient scoring efficiency. Although James has averaged 26.3 points in 16 regular season games so far this season, it is still difficult for him to break this NBA record at the age of 37.
Oxlade-Chamberlain, who ranks No. 7 in the NBA's all-time regular season total score list, is far ahead in terms of total career regular season rebounds, grabbing 23,924 rebounds in 1,045 regular season games, 2,304 more than second-place "Lord of the Rings" Bill Russell! The NBA's active player has the most career regular season rebounds, with only 14,405, which is already ranked 11th in NBA history. For now alone, Chamberlain's record could be harder to break than scoring 100 points in a single game!
The NBA's all-time record for total assists in the regular season is held by John Stockton, who has delivered 15,806 assists in 1,504 regular season games, 3,715 more than Kidd, who ranks second in NBA history! The NBA player with the most regular season assists is Chris Paul, who has assisted 10,538 times in 1116 regular season games so far, ranking third in NBA history, but it is impossible to surpass Stockton's record.
The NBA's all-time regular season total steal record is also held by Stockton at 3265, while The active number one Paul has so far delivered 2384 steals and ranks fifth in NBA history; the highest record for the total number of regular season blocks in NBA history is 3830 held by "Big Dream" Olajuwon, and the most frequently blocked in the career regular season among active players is Dwight Howard, who ranks 13th in NBA history, with only 2209. These two records are also unlikely to be broken for now.
Of the five regular stats, only the total score is expected to be broken, but James still needs to work hard, and he is likely to miss another chance to win the championship. At the same time, James has been able to rank third in history with 13,063 sports goals in the regular season compared to Abdul-Abdul-Jabbar's 15,837 sports goals; compared with The 15,837 sports goals held by Jabbar, James has so far hit the fifth in history with 7,638 free throws, and it is impossible to surpass it.
Although this is an NBA era of soaring statistics, although James has broken some NBA records and still maintains a high competitive status at the age of 37, from the current point of view, in addition to the number of three-point shots, only the NBA's historical regular season total score record is expected to be broken by active players.
