35 years old, when it comes to NBA players, he is a hero in his twilight years!

Looking at the past, even stars will show a downward trend when they reach this age, such as Hill, O'Neal, Kobe and Wade.

NBA's game style is often overlooked by me. After all, James is about to start his 23rd season of his career, and he will be 41 years old at that time, but the data is still 25+5+5, but this is an example.

Of course, you might say that Curry, Harden, Durant, Butler, George, Paul and Westbrook are all still playing the All-Star style at the age of 35? That's right, but it still affects the data.

For example, after the player is 35 years old, can he continue to score 50+ points in a single game? Such scores are still something that stars can do many times in today's fast-paced games.

And if the conditional limit of at least 35 years old is added, how many active stars can do? Durant failed to achieve it! Of course, although Durant scored very well, there were not many high-explosion scoring games.

Westbrook 0 times

Westbrook's competitive state began to show a downward trend when he left the Thunder. Even in the Wizards, he can average triple-double per game in a single season. But now he is 36 years old and has a change in his tactical status. In the future, he will score 50 points in a single game?

We can only say that it is too forced and there is basically no such opportunity! Unless you go to a team in the reconstruction stage and act as the absolute core of the lineup, Westbrook's personality and pursuits obviously will not pursue this matter too much.

James 2 times

March 2022 50 points, the opponent Wizards

March 2022, 56 points, the opponent Warriors

The oldest player in active duty, with obvious advantages in terms of games, but the style of the game also determines that James cannot have too many high bursts in a single game. In addition to the playoffs, he currently has only 2 games at least 50 points in the 35-year-old and after games.

23 seasons, 41-year-old James may choose to leave the NBA? After executing its current last year contract with the Lakers, it will become a free agent at this time next year, and it is possible to stay or leave.

Curry 5 times

2023, 50 points, opponent Clippers

2023, 50 points, playoffs against the Kings in February 2024, 60 points, opponent Hawks

March 2025, against the Magic 56 points

April 2024, 52 points, opponent Grizzlies

Regional season + playoffs, Curry has played 5 times in a single game of 50+ points, including the desperate counterattack against the Kings in the playoffs, which proves his competitive spirit as if Jordan and Kobe.

Curry is still the most likely player to score 50+ points in a single game in the new season, and he is still in a peak state and physical fitness. There is no decay at present, and he is still very capable of running!

NBA history has only 8 people done this, Harden once!

In this age category, in addition to the aforementioned James and Curry, there are 6 players in NBA history, including Inglish, Jordan, Carl Malone, Kobe, Kelly and Harden.

As for the Bearded One's 50 points in a single game, it happened in March this year. The background is that the Clippers played against Motor City in the regular season, but Harden and Old Man talked about the boy crazy, scored 50 points under the test of the back-to-back schedule, and his skills remained unabated!
