Stats are below of all the players who average 30 or more from last season.

  1. Joel Embiid - 33.1
  2. Luka 32.4
  3. Damian Lillard 32.4
  4. SGA 31.4
  5. Giannis 31.1.
  6. Tatum 30.1

Curry was the next up at 29.4. Honestly I see Curry averaging 30 or more this year, I do not see Dame or Giannis doing it since they are teammates now. I think Donovan Mitchell does it too. So I predict personally that there will be 6 this upcoming year as well.

Realistically less. Luka is the only name here I'd write in pen.

Embiid could certainly do it again but he's got his MVP and Philly REALLY needs to figure out how to keep his stamina up for the postseason so taking on less in game load is probably a good idea.

Lillard and Giannis are almost impossible to both score 30.

Chet is gonna need some shots, so SGA might see a downtick but I wouldn't rule it out.

Tatum will likely be close but hard to say how the offense shake out in Boston.

Agreed. I'd probably say SGA is the third most likely, but that's shaky.

Tatum adds in Jrue and KP to the mix, so I really don't think he will.
