Other than that, 3 is the highest total. Funny too, because even just last year, we had one guy average 30 per game. Lebron is right at 30, maybe he drops back. SGA is at 30.8 and Tatum is at 30.8; everyone else is over 31. If SGA and Tatum play every game from here on out, they'd need to average a little over 28 to keep it over 30, so I would imagine we're going to have at least 5, probably 6, if not all 7 guys finish the year at over 30 a game. (Donovan mitchell is 8th at 27.0, so he's not getting to 30. Unless he has a few more 71 point games in him) Another way to look at it is, prior to this season, there have been 75 different player seasons over 30.0 PPG. If all 7 get there this season, you're talking about an increase of over 9% in one season! [/QUOTE]
