Most points ever by a player in less than 10 minutes?

[Magic 32]

Including shooting sprees across quarters...

Play-by-play recaps are really needed for this, so that could limit the list.

Some candidates...

What do you mean 'candidates'? It's clearly Klay since he's scored the most in a quarter, let alone 10 minutes. Or do you mean most impressive?

[Sakkreth]

What about players that played 10 or less minutes in whole game ?

Mah nigguh Tmac dropped 13 points in 35 SECS

Well if someone (MJ?) scored 20 in the last 5 minutes of one qtr and then 18 in the beginning of the next.

Could be out there.

That's like 222 points per 10 minutes, clearly the best p4p.

[Psileas]

As long as there's practically zero data for play-by-play's before like 2002, there's no way to make a list that includes everyone.
You could argue that David Thompson or George Gervin may have done something similar in their 1978 last game scoring battle. Gervin actually had started that game cold, going 0-6 in the beginning of the quarter and still ended up with 20, followed by his historical 33 point 2nd quarter, so he may have scored those 53 points in only like 20 minutes instead of 24 - and that's assuming that he didn't get any rest in that half.

[Im Still Ballin]

That's like 222 points per 10 minutes, clearly the best p4p.
Reggie 8 points in 9 seconds

[DirkNowitzki41]

dirk 29 pts from 9:36 to 0:34 of the 4th qtr vs jazz in 2009

Yea theres no 'candidates'. Just more of a fact.

Like...what is there to argue? These guys had the most point in 10 minutes :lol
