The place did the GOATs rank statistically throughout their time within the NBA?


How dominant have been NBA superstars throughout their years within the league? To shed some mild on that, we put collectively an inventory of gamers displaying the place they ranked within the main statistical classes – factors, rebounds and assists, in addition to blocks and steals when doable – throughout their days within the NBA.

For instance, throughout Wilt Chamberlain’s time within the NBA, he ranked first in factors and rebounds. LeBron James? He ranks Prime 2 in 4 totally different classes – the one participant to perform that feat.

On this train, we solely rely the seasons through which these gamers competed. In the event that they have been retired (Michael Jordan), within the navy (Paul Arizin), within the ABA or another league (Rick Barry or George Gervin), or injured for a full season (say Kevin Durant in 2019-20), the seasons missed by these gamers weren’t factored in.

We went with the members of the HoopsHype78 record for this challenge. Take a look at our findings under.
