Russell Westbrook Passes Oscar Robertson as NBA’s Highest-Scoring Point Guard

The 18th‑year guard reached 26,711 career points during Sacramento’s loss in Phoenix.

Overview

  • Westbrook moved past Robertson for the point‑guard scoring mark, taking the lead late in the fourth quarter on a high‑bank finish.
  • He closed the night with 17 points, nine rebounds and six assists in 26 minutes as the Kings fell to the Suns 129-102.
  • His career total now stands at 26,711 points, with Stephen Curry the closest active chaser at 26,103.
  • The milestone comes in Westbrook’s first season with Sacramento after he declined a second‑year option with Denver and signed late in the preseason.
  • Sacramento dropped to 8-27 with the defeat, and the Kings next host the Bucks on January 4.
