While Duncan's efficiency is impressive at his age, the "1st player 38 and older to score 26-10 in less than or equal to 35 minutes" is a bit of a cherry pick. Although the time spent does make it more impressive in an efficiency sense, playing a lot of minutes at that age and being effective is impressive too.
If you get rid of the 35 minute limit, and ignore the "since Hakeem," the list is essentially the following:
Duncan(2)
MJ(7)
Karl Malone (20!)
Kareem(4)
Hakeem(2)
Parish(3)
Grant Hill(2)
