Heading into the Thunder's matchup against the Detroit Pistons, Anthony was 17 points away from becoming the 21st player in National Basketball Association history to reach 25,000 career points. As most recognized it would take time for Russell Westbrook, Paul George, and Carmelo Anthony to build chemistry, Anthony accepting his new role has taken them to the next level.
"You look at 25,000 points, that's a lot of points, and doing it on a nightly basis like he's done is really remarkable", Thunder head coach Billy Donovan told reporters prior to Saturday's game, per ESPN.com's Michael Rothstein. He put up 14 in the first half, scored on a pull-up jumper early in the third before getting to the line at the 8:30 mark. He then hit the next free throw to extend his team's lead to 81-57.

Evans followed that with a 3-point play with 46 seconds left to secure the win in the teams' first meeting since December 1976. After trailing by four at halftime, the Gamecocks would storm out to a big lead thanks, in part to Chris Silva.
In his 16-year career, Anthony has averaged at least 20.8 points in every season but this one.
"Congratulations to Carmelo on joining the 25,000-point club and for his remarkable scoring ability and consistency over 15 seasons", commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement issued through the National Basketball Association. James reached 30,000 points on Tuesday, becoming the first player in National Basketball Association history to register 30,000 points, 7,000 rebounds and 7,000 assists. It's a fun coincidence that he reached this milestone against the team that drafted Darko Milicic ahead of him.
