DeMar DeRozan passes Jerry West on the NBA’s All-Time scoring list

DeMar DeRozan continues to climb the NBA’s all-time scoring list.

During the Sacramento Kings’ stunning win over the NBA-best Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night, DeRozan poured in 28 points in what turned out to be another historic performance for the six-time All-Star.

DeRozan’s 28-point outing pushed him ahead of the late Jerry West—a legendary former point guard immortalized as the famed silhouette on the NBA logo—for 26th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list.

At 25,209 points, DeRozan is within reach of Hall of Fame guard Reggie Miller (25,279 points) with four games to go in the regular season.

More on DeMar DeRozan & the Sacramento Kings

Zach LaVine made seven 3-pointers, including three in the fourth quarter, to finish with a game-high 37 points as the visiting Sacramento Kings pushed past the Cleveland Cavaliers 120-113 on Sunday night.

The win sends the Kings (38-40) to the ninth seed in the Western Conference, a half-game ahead of the Mavericks, and also denied the Cavaliers (62-16) the opportunity to clinch the top seed in the Eastern Conference. Sacramento won both games over the Cavs this season.

With the score 116-111, LaVine drove to the basket and scored with his left hand on a lay-in with 46.1 seconds left, but replay seemed to indicate that the ball was still in his hand when the shot clock went off. The play was never reviewed.

DeMar DeRozan had 28 points and seven assists for the Kings, while Domantas Sabonis added 27 points, nine rebounds and seven assists

Ty Jerome paced Cleveland with 20 points off the bench, Donovan Mitchell had 19 points, seven boards and six assists, while Jarrett Allen finished with 17 points. Evan Mobley contributed 16 points, nine rebounds and three blocks.

In the third quarter, Mitchell appeared to injure his left ankle coming up the court when he crossed paths with Keon Ellis. Mitchell went back to the locker room and did return after missing over six minutes of game action. Sacramento would close the third quarter on a 24-6 run to lead 91-79.
