Super scorer! Who is the person with the highest average score in the NBA Finals? Alexander ranks first

In the finals, the opponent will obviously use all his strength to prevent the team's stars from scoring, so it is not easy to get high scores in the finals. So who are the NBA players with the highest average score in the career finals? This column will help you understand.

10th place O'Neal averaged 28.8 points per game

"If you choose Joe, if you don't choose Joe" is a concise summary of O'Neal's dominance. At his peak, O'Neal had unsolvable terrifying inside dominance. In this situation that can be called a dimensional reduction strike, he also helped the Lakers achieve the only three consecutive championships in the league this century.

ninth place Doncic averaged 29.2 points per game

In the 2023-2024 season, Doncic helped the Mavericks reach the finals again after 13 years, but unfortunately he ended up losing to the Celtics. The team's series defeat failed to cover up Doncic's strong performance. He averaged 29.2 points per game in his first finals trip in his career. He has transferred to the Lakers and still has the opportunity to pursue highest honors in the future.

8th place Jokic averages 30.2 points per game

Jokic is a well-deserved first player in terms of pure strength. In terms of technical characteristics, Jokic is not the kind of star who is famous for scoring high scores, but when it is really necessary to score, Jokic will take the lead.

7th place Durant averaged 30.3 points per game

It can be said that Durant had almost no dead ends in the half-court range. When Durant joined the Warriors in 2016, the entire basketball world exclaimed that he was the universe team, and in the following two years, Durant also used his super scoring ability to help the Warriors complete their consecutive championships.

Sixth West averages 30.5 points per game

As a white defender with average physical fitness, West has top ball quotient and scoring level. It is worth mentioning that West is the first player in history to be awarded FMVP as a loser.

Fifth place Jordan averaged 33.6 points per game

Although Jordan's average score per game in his career finals is not the best, considering that he has experienced six final baptisms and eventually led the team to win the championship, such a high sample size is enough to prove Jordan's greatness.

The fourth place Antetokounmpo averaged 35.2 points per game

2021 is an extremely smooth year for the Bucks and Antetokounmpo. As a superstar with inside size and outside skills, Antetokounmpo, who is in good shape, cannot be restricted at all. In the end, he led the team to win the championship and raised his historical status to a higher level.

Third place Iverson averaged 35.6 points per game

before the 2001 Finals, the Lakers had never suffered a defeat in the playoffs, but in the first game of the finals, he ended the Lakers' unbeaten myth with his ultimate personal heroism. Although the 76ers missed the championship that year, that battle can be recorded in history forever.

Second Alexander averaged 36 points per game

Although this season is the first time in his career to reach the finals, Alexander did not feel any awkward. In the first two games, he scored a total of 72 points, becoming the first player in the history of the league to get this score in the first two games of his career finals. In the next few games, he may still set various new records, and of course he may also fall out of the top ten in one game.

The first place Rick Barry averaged 36.3 points per game

As a "ancient" player, Barry is most well-known to modern people for his strange free throwing posture. In fact, Barry's scoring level is top-notch in history. In the 1967 finals, Barry scored 55 points and set the second highest single-game scoring record in the history of the finals, while in 1975 he led the team to win the championship as he wished.
