.
How dominant were NBA superstars during their years in the league? To shed some light on that, we put together a list of players showing where they ranked in the major statistical categories – points, rebounds and assists, as well as blocks and steals when possible – during their days in the NBA.
For example, during Wilt Chamberlain's time in the NBA, he ranked first in points and rebounds. LeBron James ? He ranks Top 2 in four different categories – the only player to accomplish that feat.
In this exercise, we only count the seasons in which these players competed. If they were retired (Michael Jordan ), in the military (Paul Arizin ), in the ABA or some other league (Rick Barry or George Gervin ), or injured for a full season (say Kevin Durant in 2019-20), the seasons missed by those players were not factored in.
We went with the members of the HoopsHype78 list for this project. Check out our findings below.
