The Phoenix Suns had another milestone night spoiled, this time on their home floor. First, Devin Booker set the franchise scoring record in a loss to Portland, and now Durant reached 30,000 career points in a loss to Memphis.
Regardless of the outcome, it’s an accomplishment that is worth highlighting and certainly worth Durant celebrating. He is one of eight players in NBA history to reach that mark.
