While these stats show where Harden ranks among active players in various categories, they don’t also mention his many accolades that also rank him among the best in the league.
On the cusp of another historic milestone, Harden will enter the 2024-25 NBA season just 60 three-pointers shy of the 3,000 mark in his career, and just 34 shy of passing Ray Allen for second all-time on that list.

With 2,940 career three-pointers made, Harden trails only Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry (3,747) among active players, and will soon be within striking distance of surpassing him all-time. It will be a historic feat for Harden, who has made 36.4 percent of his career three-pointers.
Harden (8,082) has already attempted more career 3-pointers than Allen (7,429), but it will still be impressive when he moves into second place all-time in made threes.
