In the 2023 NBA Christmas series, Luka Doncic reached a special milestone in his career by scoring 3 points near the mid-court logo. This is also the longest successful shot scored by the Dallas Mavericks star ever and helped him achieve a memorable milestone in his career.

Before Doncic, there were 6 NBA legends who achieved this milestone better than him: George Gervin (355 games), Oscar Robertson (334 games), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (319 games), Elgin Baylor (315 games), Michael Jordan ( 303 games) and Wilt Chamberlain is the leader with only 236 games. However, in terms of age, Doncic (24 years and 300 days) will rank 6th in NBA history for the fastest player to reach 10,000 points.

Among NBA players still playing, the Slovenian basketball superstar needs the least number of games to reach the 10,000 point mark, surpassing famous scoring stars like Stephen Curry, James Harden or LeBron James. In particular, it took LeBron James 368 matches to reach the 10,000 mark, only 10 more matches than Luka.

In NBA history, there have only been 6 players who scored 10,000 points before turning 25. These are all of the NBA’s top scoring stars and are also the 6 players mentioned: Luka Doncic, LeBron James , Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and Tracy McGrady.

Currently, Doncic’s Dallas Mavericks team is ranked 5th in the Western region with 18 wins and 12 losses. In the next match, Doncic and his teammates will visit the Cleveland Cavaliers on December 28.
