LeBron James has officially played in more NBA games than any other player, while Michael Jordan is now looking up at Kevin Durant on the league's all-time scoring list. 'Four more to go,' Durant said after passing Jordan for fifth in scoring with a 27-point effort in Houston's win over Miami. The 37-year-old Durant drained consecutive corner 3-pointers in the fourth quarter to give himself 32,294 career points – two more than Jordan. Jordan did average an NBA-record 30.12 points per game over his career, first all time ahead of Wilt Chamberlain (30.07 ppg). Already first in points, seasons played, minutes, All-Star selections, field goals, and career earnings, James admittedly wasn't expecting to pass Parish.
