Sooner or later, will it be surpassed by Curry? Westbrook is only 505 points away and will become the historical scoring champion of point guards

The new season is about to begin, and Westbrook, who entered the NBA in 2008, will also usher in his 18th season of his career. It is worth mentioning that there are very few active players who entered the league before Westbrook, only James, Paul, Lowry, Tucker, Durant, Conley, Horford, Jeff Green, etc.

Although Westbrook is a veritable veteran and has achieved great career achievements, his current situation is not good and he has not found a next home yet. In other words, if Westbrook has not signed with the team before the start of the season, he will temporarily bid farewell to the NBA and may even retire.

Although Westbrook's strength has declined significantly, it has not reached the point of retirement. Westbrook and the Nuggets had a one-year contract, but he himself broke the player option. As a result, no team in the free market was willing to sign him, so he has not found his next home so far. However, even if Westbrook is still a free agent after the season begins, as the season progresses, there will definitely be teams considering him.

It is worth mentioning that Westbrook will also usher in many milestones in his 18th season of his career. Westbrook has sent 9,925 assists so far in his career, and is only 75 times away from breaking through the 10,000 mark, becoming the eighth player in history to achieve this milestone. He will also be the third player to do this after Paul and James in active service.

In addition, Westbrook's total career score has reached 26,205 points, ranking second in history among all point guard players, second only to Robertson (26,710 points), and only 505 points away from completing the surpass. Westbrook has surpassed Robertson in the triple-double list before and becomes the historical triple-double king, and is expected to surpass Robertson in the next step and become the new point guard historical scoring champion.

However, even though Westbrook successfully surpassed Robertson, Curry was catching up with him. Curry has scored 25,386 points, and the gap with Westbrook is less than 1,000 points. Moreover, Curry still has strong strength and strong scoring ability. It will be a matter of time before he surpasses Westbrook, and he is even expected to reach the 30,000-point milestone.

Therefore, even if Westbrook can become the historical scoring champion of point guard players, he will be surpassed by Curry soon. If Westbrook cannot return to the NBA, Curry may even surpass Robertson before Westbrook, and Westbrook will miss the point guard's historical scoring champion.
