Kyrie Irving is absolutely flying up the NBA’s all-time scoring ladder, dropping a free throw at the 2:05 mark of the second quarter against Indiana tonight to blast past Mavs legend Mark Aguirre for 74th place. That bucket pushed his career total to an incredible 18,459 points.
Talk about a hot streak! This wasn’t just a one-off. Just one game earlier, back on October 21st against Houston, Irving had already leapfrogged Dolph Schayes for 75th all-time. He hit 18,438 points in that game, setting the stage for tonight’s epic climb past Aguirre, who sat at 18,458.
When a player jumps two legends on the all-time list in a span of a couple of days, you know you’re watching history being made. Keep your eyes peeled, because Kyrie isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
