5 records Kevin Durant could break in the 2021-22 NBA season

#3 Kevin Durant can become the third player in NBA history with at least five scoring titles

Kevin Durant #7 of the Brooklyn Nets.

Kevin Durant's four NBA scoring titles are the most among current NBA players and also rank third in league history, tied with George Gervin and Allen Iverson and behind Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain.

Jordan and Chamberlain are synonymous with scoring records in NBA history, as MJ won a record 10 scoring titles in his career and Chamberlain won a total of seven.

Jordan is also the all-time leader in points-per-game average for a career with 30.1, while Chamberlain is close in second with 30.07 points per game in his NBA journey.

With another NBA scoring title in his career, Kevin Durant will join 'His Airness' and Wilt as the only players in league history with at least five scoring titles.

#2 He could join the exclusive group of NBA players with multiple seasons with a 50-40-90 shooting split

Kevin Durant #7 of the Brooklyn Nets goes in for a layup.

Kevin Durant is one of the best scorers in NBA history not only because of the high average of points per game he has throughout his career (the fifth-best in league history with 27.02), but also due to his efficiency.

Durant is already one of eight players in the 50-40-90 club. He achieved the feat in the 2012-13 NBA season, when he averaged 28.1 points per game with a 51/41/90 shooting split.

If he manages to replicate such a scoring rate (he had a 53/45/88 split last year), Durant will become the third player in league history with multiple 50-40-90 seasons, along with Larry Bird (twice) and Steve Nash (four times).

Kevin Durant is one of the greatest and most efficient scorers in NBA history and even though he has had some seasons where injuries have kept him off the court for several games, he's managed to score 23,883 points in his regular-season career.

He is only 1,117 points away from the 25,000-point mark and Kevin Durant has surpassed that tally 11 times during his NBA career.

If and when Durant manages to reach 25,000 points in his regular-season career, he will become the 23rd player in NBA history to do so.

Equalling his career average of points per game (27), Kevin Durant would need around 41 games to reach 25,000 career points.
