US media selects the top ten super scorers in history: Curry is not shortlisted, Irving is sixth, and Durant is third

On the NBA stage, which gathers countless basketball geniuses, the scoring ability varies, because it brings together the world's most outstanding basketball candidates. The American media FW recently selected the top ten scorers in history, so let's learn about them one by one.

10th place: Elgin Baylor

Baylor is considered one of the strongest scoring small forwards in history. He was selected into the All-Squad in 10 seasons, and averaged more than 34 points per game in three consecutive seasons at his peak. His athleticism is very outstanding, but because he was in the 1960s, Baylor's achievements were not widely recognized, and his career averaged 27.4 points, 13.6 rebounds and 4.3 assists.

Ninth place: Paul Pierce

Although the historical scoring champion James failed to be selected, this decision has caused some controversy. Although Pierce did not average very high scores at his peak, he always stood up at critical moments, equally with Kobe at the peak of that year. Career data shows that Pierce averaged 19.7 points per game, plus 5.6 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.3 steals.

8th place: Carl Malone

As the third place in the historical total score list, Malone's lack of a problem makes people question James' failure. He scored with strong physical fitness and athletic talent and had fewer injuries. After reaching his peak period, Malone increased his mid-range shooting ability, averaging 25 points, 10.1 rebounds and 3.6 assists in his career, and had 1.4 steals.

7th place: Dirk Nowitzki

North King is regarded as one of the most offensive power forwards in history. He has both low-post attack skills and top mid-range shooting ability. At the same time, his long-range shooting performance is also extremely stable, helping the team win the championship with a single core. His career average is 20.7 points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.4 assists.

No. 6: Kyrie Irving

Irving can be said to be the most skilled point guard in history. He masters almost all scoring skills, has a superb sense of ball, can complete many movements that other players are difficult to do, and his mid-range and long-range shooting ability is also stable. However, his ability to lead the team is often criticized, with his career averaging 23.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 5.6 assists, plus 1.3 steals.

Fifth place: Cameron Anthony

Melon Anthony is known as the "offensive kaleidoscope", good at shooting in the middle distance, and even in the inside offense, he tends to shoot more than throw. He also won the game in the international arena, and his back skills and three threat tactics are classic, with a career average of 22.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1 steal.

4th place: Iverson

Although he is not superior in height, Iverson has shown extraordinary scoring skills among the many giants. He is known for the fastest first step in the league. Even though his opponent knows his breakthrough route, it is still difficult to defend, so he won the title of Score King with four goals. His career averages were 26.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 2.2 steals, ranking second in history in the playoffs.

Third place: Kevin Durant

In terms of scoring ability, Durant is definitely qualified to rank at the forefront of history, and even the top two are of concern. He is one of the most effective singles players in history, and his scoring efficiency at his peak is no less than Jordan. Durant became the first player in NBA history to average more than 30 points and shooting percentage of 180 in the Finals, averaging 27.2 points, 7 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1 steal and 1.1 blocks in his career.

Second place: Kobe Bryant

Although Kobe may not be as talented as Durant and his offensive efficiency is relatively low, his physical condition is far better than Durant. He can maintain stable performance at critical moments, and dare to take action in a stressful environment and attack creatively. His career averages were 25 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1.4 steals.

No. 1: Michael Jordan's top position is almost undisputed, after all, he is a legendary figure who has won 10 scoring titles in history. His regular season averaged 30.12 points, and his average of 33 points per game in the playoffs is also the highest record in history. Moreover, Jordan is the only player to score 60+ in a single game in the playoffs. He not only has extraordinary skills, but also has top physical talents in history.
