Assistant: Top NBA Scoring Players

The lists on the internet are very confusing, because there are so many different things listed that aren’t really about the best scoring players, like “active players”, “total points” and so on.  But there are some lists that focus only on the top scorers.  Here’s one:  
1. Michael Jordan, 32,292 pts.
2. Karl Malone, 36,928 pts.
3. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, 38,387 pts.
4. Wilt Chamberlain, 31,419 pts.
5. Hakeem Olajuwon, 24,733 pts.
6. Moses Malone, 24,487 pts.
7. Elvin Hayes, 25,551 pts.
8. Shaquille O’Neal, 26,962 pts.
9. John Havlicek, 24,885 pts.
10. Walt Bellamy, 25,209 pts.
