Another day, another milestone for Spurs’ Tim Duncan
Even more exclusive? Here is the complete list of players with 25,000 points, 15,000 rebounds, and 3,000 blocks:
1. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
2. Tim Duncan.
That’s it. (Of note, blocks weren’t tracked until 1974. You can bet Chamberlain would have landed on that list if they were tracked.)
Duncan will be remembered more for his titles and consistency than he will any outrageous statistical accomplishments, but the fact that he’s been such a good rebounder for so long speaks to his greatness. Duncan is still averaging 10.8 rebounds per 36 minutes this season, even as the Spurs focus on getting him more rest than ever.
Duncan is currently 7th all time in rebounds.
