NBA Year-By-Year Scoring Leaders: 65 Years Of Points Per Game, Part 1

Since 1946-47, when "Jumpin" Joe Fulks led the league in scoring, the NBA has always inevitably had a guy who scored so well each season that his name is etched in history as an NBA scoring leader.

To this day, I do not believe people understand how tough it to lead the NBA in scoring just once. You have to produce almost every night at an extraordinary level to lead the NBA in scoring.

Jordan did it 10 times and finished with the highest scoring average ever.

Wilt did it seven times and has the second-highest scoring average ever.

These two stand out as the greatest scorers ever. Thy finished their CAREERS at over 30 ppg, which is really amazing!
