List of NCAA Division I Men 's Basketball career scoring leaders - wikipedia List of NCAA Division I Men 's Basketball career scoring leaders Pete Maravich, who averaged 44.2 points per game over three seasons for LSU, holds the NCAA Division I scoring record with 3,667 points In basketball, points are the sum of the score accumulated through free throw or field goal. In National Collegiate Athletic Association ( NCAA ) Division I basketball, where a player 's career is at most four seasons long, it is considered a notable achievement to reach the 1,000 - points scored threshold. In even rarer instances, players have reached the 2,000 - and 3,000 - point plateaus ( no player has ever scored 4,000 or more points at the Division I level ). The top 25 highest scorers in NCAA Division I men 's basketball history are listed below. The NCAA did not split into its current divisions format until August 1973. From 1906 to 1955, there were no classifications to the NCAA nor its predecessor, the Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the United States ( IAAUS ). Then, from 1956 to spring 1973, colleges were classified as either `` NCAA University Division ( Major College ) '' or `` NCAA College Division ( Small College ) ''. Some of the top 25 scorers in Division I history played before the three - point line was officially instituted in 1986 -- 87. All of the players with a dash through the three - point field goals made column were affected by this rule. Hank Gathers of Loyola Marymount is the only three - point shot era player on this list who did not make a single three - point shot. From the 1986 -- 87 season through the 2007 -- 08 season, the three - point perimeter was marked at 19 ft 9 in ( 6.02 m ) for both men 's and women 's college basketball. On May 3, 2007, the NCAA men 's basketball rules committee passed a measure to extend the distance of the men 's three - point line back to 20 ft 9 in ( 6.32 m ) ; the women 's line would remain at the original distance until it was moved to match the men 's distance effective in 2011 -- 12. Additionally, several of the players on this list played during an era when college freshmen were ineligible to compete at the varsity level and were forced to participate on either freshman or junior varsity teams. Since freshman and junior varsity points do not count toward official NCAA records, three players -- Pete Maravich, Oscar Robertson and Elvin Hayes -- only had three seasons to compile their totals. Larry Bird redshirted ( sat out ) his freshman year, and therefore, like Maravich, Robertson, and Hayes, his totals also cover only three seasons ( though in Bird 's case, unlike the others, it was his own choice not to play a fourth season at the college level ). With the added benefits of a three - point line and a full extra year of varsity eligibility, their already - historical statistics would have been much higher. Maravich, a guard from LSU, not only owns the three highest single season averages in Division I history, but also the highest career total. Remarkably, he scored 3,667 points ( over 400 more than the next closest player ) in a mere 83 games. His record is considered nearly unbreakable ; the only player who could have potentially overtaken him as the top scorer in Division I history is Stephen Curry of Davidson, who had scored 2,635 points through his first three seasons of college basketball. However, Curry opted to forgo his final year of NCAA eligibility and moved on to the National Basketball Association ( NBA ) following his junior season in 2008 -- 09. Five players on this list are enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame : Pete Maravich, Oscar Robertson, Elvin Hayes, Larry Bird and David Robinson. Key Pos. Ref.

The `` conference founded '' column indicates when each respective conference first began intercollegiate athletic competition, not necessarily when they began basketball. For example, the Great West Conference was established as a football - only conference in 2004 but became an all - sports conference in 2008 ( with basketball actually beginning in 2009 -- 10 ). Also note that some of the schools on this list are no longer in the conference in which they are identified. Utah, for instance, is currently a member of the Pac - 12 Conference, but when Keith Van Horn set the scoring record they were still a member of the Western Athletic Conference. Similarly, BYU is currently in the West Coast Conference, but their final four seasons in the Mountain West Conference were the years in which Jimmer Fredette played at the school and set that conference 's scoring record. Tyler Hansbrough amassed an ACC - record 2,872 points at North Carolina. Bill Bradley, the Ivy League 's all - time leading scorer, is also in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

The seven schools that did not sponsor Division I FBS football reorganized as a new Big East Conference, while the FBS football schools that had not left for other conferences, plus several new members, began operating as the American Athletic Conference. The American now considers its basketball history to have begun with the 2013 split, while the current Big East maintains the basketball history of the original Big East. Jump up ^ The Big East Conference recognizes Lawrence Moten, who played at Syracuse between 1991 and 1995, as its all - time conference scoring leader, using the criterion of points scored in regular - season conference games only. Moten scored 1,405 points in games that counted toward the record. Troy Bell, who is technically second on the list with 1,388 points, scored more career points than Moten when all games are taken into account. The above conference scoring leaders list uses overall career totals, not conference - career totals, as its criterion. Jump up ^ The Southland Conference recognizes Dwight `` Bo '' Lamar, who played at Southwestern Louisiana ( now Louisiana ) between 1968 and 1972, as their all - time conference scoring leader, using the criterion of points scored against conference opponents only. He scored 1,054 points in conference games. Additionally, Southwestern Louisiana did not join the Southland Conference until 1971, so all of Lamar 's points prior to then do not count toward Southland Conference scoring. Joe Dumars, who is technically second on the list with 819 points, actually scored more career points than Lamar since McNeese State was a member of the Southland Conference for the duration of Dumars ' career. The above conference scoring leaders list uses overall career totals, not conference - career totals, as its criterion. Jump up ^ Hank Gathers ' scoring total in this table includes only games played for WCC member Loyola Marymount ; he played his freshman season of 1985 -- 86 at USC in what was then known as the Pacific - 10 Conference. He transferred from USC after that season ; after sitting out the 1986 -- 87 season due to NCAA transfer rules, he played at Loyola Marymount until his death during his senior season in 1990.
