HOUSTON – Friday night, the Houston Rockets hosted the Phoenix Suns in a matchup of the two primary teams in last summer’s blockbuster trade that brought Kevin Durant from the desert to Clutch City.

Durant entered the night with 30,996 career total points. With two free throws and a midrange jumper in the first quarter, Durant crossed the 31,000 mark.

KD is now one of just eight players in NBA history to surpass 31,000 points, joining LeBron James, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Dirk Nowitzki, and Wilt Chamberlain.

Congrats, KD!
