John Schuhmann

Giannis Antetokounmpo, F, Milwaukee Bucks *

1. Averaging at least 30 points per 36 minutes for the seventh (straight) season. No other player in NBA history has averaged at least 30 per 36 (minimum 1,000 minutes) more than four times.

2. Has averaged 10.8 ppg in the third quarter, which would be the third-highest average for any player (minimum 40 games played) in any quarter in the 29 seasons for which we have by-quarter stats.

3. Has averaged 18.6 points in the restricted area, the most for any player in the 29 seasons for which we have shot-location data, topping his mark of 18.1 ppg last season. His 161 dunks also lead the league.

Jaylen Brown, G/F, Boston Celtics

1. Averaging 4.8 assists per game, a career-high mark by a wide margin and up from 3.6 per game last season.

2. Has seen a drop in the percentage of his own field goals that have been assisted every year he’s been in the league, from 70.3% as a rookie to 47.2% this season.

3. The Celtics have the highest 3-point rate (53.3%) in the 46 seasons of the 3-point line, but Brown has his lowest rate since his rookie season, having taken just 32.3% of his shots from beyond the arc.

Jalen Brunson, G, New York Knicks

1. Leads the league in time of possession (8.7 minutes per game), average seconds per touch (6.08) and average dribbles per touch (6.12).

2. Has a clutch usage rate of 47.2%, which would be the highest rate for any player in the last six seasons. He’s one of two players — Nikola Jokić is the other — who’ve shot better than 50% (30-for-57) on at least 50 clutch shots.

Cade Cunningham, G, Detroit Pistons

1. One of only two players in NBA history — Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is the other — to have played at least 500 games and averaged at least 24 points, 10 rebounds and two blocks per game throughout his career. (Blocks have only been counted since 1973-74.).

2. One of three players — fellow All-Star Victor Wembanyama and the Utah Jazz’s Walker Kessler are the others — who have played at least 500 minutes and have more blocks (93) than personal fouls (82). This would be Davis’ fifth season with more blocks than fouls.

Registering career-best marks for field goal percentage in the paint (60.1%) and free throw rate (23 attempts per 100 shots from the field), while also taking only 9% of his shots from mid-range.

1. He would be the second player in NBA history, joining Oscar Robertson (30.8, 12.5 and 11.4 in 1961-62), to average at least 28 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists per game. Averaging 28, 12 and 10 per 36 minutes (he’s at 29.9, 12.6 and 10.3) would be unprecedented.
