James Harden moved into the top 10 on the NBA's all-time scoring list on Saturday, but his 34 points weren't enough to lift the struggling Los Angeles Clippers in a 109-106 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Harden, 36, came into the contest needing 20 points to knock Carmelo Anthony out of the No. 10 spot with 28,289 points.
After scoring 19 points before halftime, he surpassed Anthony with four minutes left in the third quarter.
Harden is one of only three active players in the top 10, along with No. 8 Kevin Durant of Houston and 40-year-old Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James who tops the list at 42,268 after surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (38,387) in 2023.
Harden, now in his 17th season, was the NBA's leading scorer for three consecutive seasons from 2017 to 2020.
