Even for the top scorers in NBA, it is very difficult to achieve 2500 points in a single season. Let’s make a calculation, suppose a player plays 82 regular season matches, then he has to score 30.5 points per season to unlock 2500 points per season. The condition of playing 82 games is too harsh. Let’s relax a little. If a player plays 75 regular season games in a season, he has to score 33.4 points on average to unlock 2500 points in a single season.

Only three of the active players have achieved at least 2500 points in a single season. Let’s see who they are ~

Durant

In the 2013-14 season, KD played 81 regular season matches with an average of 32 points. He scored 2593 points in the whole season. In fact, KD almost unlocked 2500 points in a single season in the third grade. In the 09-10 season, he played 82 regular season matches with an average of 30.1 points. He scored 2472 points in the whole season.

Weishao

In the 2016-17 season, Wei Shao played 81 regular season matches with an average of 31.6 points. He scored 2558 points in the whole season.

Harden

In the 2018-19 season, Harden played 78 regular season matches with an average of 36.1 points. He scored 2818 points in the whole season.

Among the players who have not unlocked 2500 points in a single season in active service, James was the closest to achieving this achievement. He played 79 regular season matches in the 05-06 season with an average of 31.4 points, he scored 2478 points in the whole season, only 22 points away from 2500 points.
