NBA scoring list in the past decade: James Kowloon tied for five or six, Antetokounmpo is the best player to top

In the NBA's star-studded league, scorers are emerging one after another. As the game evolves, today's stars seem to score more easily on the court than before. Next, let's review and take a look at the ten players with the highest total scores in the NBA over the past decade. Surprisingly, even as strong as Durant, he failed to make it to this list due to attendance rates; and the two veteran superstars, James and Curry, could only be in the middle.

No. 10: Davis (15061 points)

Referring to the inside overlord in recent years, Davis from 2017 to 2020 is undoubtedly a strong contender for the league's No. 1 power forward. At that time, he had a huge athletic ability and his off-ball ability was the top in the league. Even among the ball-holders in the same position, his performance was enough to rank among the top. However, since winning the championship in 2020, injuries have been tangled with thick eyebrows, which not only stopped his total score in the top ten in the same period, but also seriously affected his career development. He failed to win the MVP trophy as he wished, but instead showed a decline in his condition. The Lakers chose to trade him this year, and the reason for this may be closely related to injuries.

Ninth place: Westbrook (15485 points)

Although Westbrook has become a basic salary player today, he has also had countless highlights in the past decade. During the Thunder period, he was selected for the Best Team many times and won the only MVP award in his career in 2017. It was there that he achieved an amazing achievement of averaging triple-double in three consecutive seasons. However, the decline in physical fitness has caused Westbrook's strength to fluctuate rapidly. Since 2021, his condition has declined more and more obvious, and he eventually became a basic salary player. But no matter what, his glorious years are still worth remembering.

8: Jokic (16210 points)

Jokic, the active basketball giant, is undoubtedly the real number one player in the league. In the past five years, he has won MVP three times, FMVP once, and a triple-double per game in a season. These achievements are enough to prove his extraordinary strength. Jokic is known for his comprehensiveness, but his scoring ability is equally not to be underestimated. He can score in almost any area on the court, both off-ball and holding the ball, which greatly improves his compatibility. Even as the Nuggets lineup continues to be relegated, Jokic can still maintain a certain lower limit, and even scored 60+ triple-double in some games. Considering that he is only 30 years old, it may be difficult for a team in the league to take his position in the next few years.

No. 7: Booker (16452 points)

Before the 2020-2021 season, Booker's average score average has been at the forefront of the league for several seasons. However, at that time, he was named "status brush" because he had never proved himself in the playoffs. It was not until later that he led the team to the playoffs many times and advanced to the finals in 2021 that he gradually won the recognition of more people. Booker is undoubtedly one of the best points and guards in the league. However, the Suns tried to make him change to point guard, and this transformation was obviously unsuccessful. During this offseason, major changes in the Suns' lineup have almost become a foregone conclusion. But no matter what, Booker's basketball talent is still worth looking forward to.

Sixth place: Curry (16672 points)

As an important star leading the small ball era, Curry's personal abilities need not be said much. He has firmly held the throne of the second point guard in history. What Curry is best at scoring on the court is scoring. He creates better opportunities for his teammates through his scoring ability, which is itself an organizational ability. Sometimes, Curry just needs to keep running to attract the attention of many defensive players. In the late stage of his career, Curry has developed stronger ball-holding ability, so he can lead the Warriors to win the championship again in 2022. Originally, he maintained his form well this year, but unfortunately he was injured later and the Warriors were eliminated early, which made him miss the best chance to win the fifth championship before retirement. But no matter what, Curry's basketball legend continues.

Fifth place: James (17271 points)

As the oldest and oldest player on this list, James has played in the NBA for 22 seasons. Therefore, compared with other players on this list, he has reached his peak nearly ten years ago. However, as she grew older, James inevitably declined. Especially after joining the Lakers, his score relies more on the environment created by his teammates for him, and his physical strength and attendance rate are far inferior to those in the past. But even so, James' battery life is still perverted among NBA players. This season, he still played at the best-ranked team level, and this phenomenon is also a unique existence in NBA history. James' basketball legend is still writing a new chapter.

Fourth place: Lillard (17621 points)

Lillard, who entered the league in 2012, demonstrated his outstanding scoring ability from the beginning. He quickly became an All-Star defender and was selected for the All-Squad multiple times. In the 2022-2023 season, Lillard scored a career-high average of 32.2 points, and also set a personal record of 71 points in a single game. However, at this stage of his career, Lillard suffered the most serious Achilles tendon injury. Considering that he is 34 years old, fans may be mentally prepared to never return to his former state. But no matter what, Lillard's glorious years are still worth remembering.

Third place: DeRozan (17686 points)

DeRozan is able to rank in this position, which may surprise many fans. After all, he has never reached the top three in the league in a single season. But the reason why he was on the list was mainly because his performance and attendance were very stable. At his peak, he also had excellent performances of 27+ per game.. DeRozan, now 35 years old, still averages 22.2 points per game, and he has also developed a certain three-point ability. This season, he averaged 1.1 three-pointers per game, which is the highest record in his career. DeRozan's basketball talent is still shining.

Second place: Harden (18801 points)

As a player who has won the regular season scoring champion for three consecutive years, it is not surprising that Harden is on the list. You know, he once scored an amazing performance of 36.1 points per game. At that time, once he got the ball on the court, he would give people the feeling that he would definitely score in this round. However, Harden later lost his peak due to multiple hamstring injuries. This injury seriously weakened his explosive power, resulting in a significant reduction in his breakthrough ability that he is best at. But even so, Harden's basketball talent and influence cannot be underestimated. His glorious years are still inspiring countless young players to move forward.

In this list, we have seen the glory and loneliness of countless stars, and have also witnessed the changes and development of the NBA. With their sweat and hard work, these players have brought us countless wonderful games and unforgettable moments. Let us look forward to their future performance on the basketball court! The restriction of step-back will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the players. However, Harden still showed a good state this season. During the regular season, he almost carried the Clippers' banner alone.

When looking at Antetokounmpo (the cumulative score has reached 18,983 points), he has been among the top players in the league since he won the MVP in 2019 and has been selected as the Best Team for many years. It is particularly worth mentioning that he has contributed an amazing data of 30+10 per game for three consecutive seasons, and this stability is really amazing. However, the Bucks were out of the first round of the playoffs for three consecutive years, making Antetokounmpo feel disgusted. During this offseason, he may become the most dazzling super giant in the trading market. Once he applies for a transaction, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the league and affect the planning and layout of many teams.
