Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!13,400 career points for a player who has come off of the bench for most of his career is very impressive. Gordon joined the likes of Lou Williams, Jamal Crawford, and Manu Ginobili with more than 13,400 points as players who came off of the bench.
Eric Gordon surpassed Vlade Divic on the all-time scoring list and is now 207th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. If Gordon stays healthy he will get to 200th on the list. He only needs 237 points to pass sharpshooter Peja Stojakovic who is currently at 200 with 13, 647 points.
It becomes a bit more complicated to move up further than that as number 198 and 199 are active players. Number 198 on the scoring list is Philadelphia 76er Tobias Harris. Harris is averaging 17.2 points per game this season.
The player who is currently at 199 on the list is Boston Celtics center Al Horford. Gordon may have a chance to pass Horford as Horford is only scoring 7.7 points per game this season.
Gordon has been very consistent with his production throughout his career and he will continue to move up the scoring list.
