The next NBA season for 2023-24 will start on October 24, 2023, and end on April 14, 2024. This season is different because there is a new tournament happening during the season from November 3 to December 9. It is very exciting. The games in this tournament will count towards the regular season standings, except for the final match. This new plan will make the NBA season more competitive.
Stephen Curry
is going to earn the most money among all players for the seventh year in a row. He’ll make almost 52 million dollars, which is a very large amount. This is the first time an NBA player has earned over 50 million dollars.
Kevin Durant from the Phoenix Suns is close to solidifying his place in NBA history. Durant is currently the 13th highest scorer in the season so far. He is very close to becoming one of the top 10 highest scorers. He has 26,892 points which is only 54 points less than Hakeem Olajuwon, who is in 12th place.
He is very close to passing Elvin Hayes,
who is in 11th place with 27,313 points, and Moses Malone, who is in 10th place with 27,409 points. Durant needs about 1,397 more points to catch up to Carmelo Anthony in 9th place, who has 28,289 points. He is also 1,704 points behind Shaquille O’Neal in 8th place, who has 28,596 points.
Kevin Durant
is the player who is most likely to rank among the top 10 this season. It may take a long time before we see another player accomplish this.
However, James Harden from the Philadelphia 76ers and Russell Westbrook from the Los Angeles Clippers are currently behind by around 3,000 points in their attempt to be part of the top 10 scoring group. Stephen Curry from the Golden State team might become one of the top 10 players in the next three seasons.
However, Damian Lillard from the Portland Trail Blazers will probably need at least five more seasons to have a chance at that. Giannis Antetokounmpo, who plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, will likely need about six more seasons before he can make a strong attempt to be among the top 10 players in the league. These upcoming events will make the upcoming NBA season more exciting and interesting.
