Jordan's 1986-87 season was outrageous - 37 PPG, 27.8 FGA, 38.2 USG%, 82 Games

Who do think can tie or break Jordan's single season PPG record in the next 5 years? I think the most likely candidates are 1) Embiid (no explanation needed) 2) KD (if he chucks aggressively and doesn't care about his efficiency), and 3) Luka (if he pretends he's getting re-married every week)

Harden has gotten the closest in recent memory during the 2018-19 season - 36 PPG, 24.5 FGA, 40.3 USG%, 78 Games

Maybe Luka if he gets in better shape and becomes a little more selfish. He's had usage close to Jordan's, but he gets more assists. If he somehow ends up on a team with zero help, I think it's possible he could do it. Super unlikely though.
