And of course 1963 is the final season Wilt was being instructed to score his ass off for promotional purposes. He had 30 50 point games that year and the rest of the league had 4. They let him play naturally after that and he “only” had 9 50 point games the next season. Putting Wilt aside I assume this year would be the record.

Maybe not though since Baylor ran wild in 62 when he was serving in the military and could only fly in for weekend games and wanted to win all of them.

I don't even think I knew that Jrue scored 50. Shows how important it is nowadays.

Other than Giannis and Steph those are a bunch of players that history will forget. Well, everyone will be forgotten, but you get the gist. What a bunch of 'meh' players dropping 50, lol.

I’d say 9 of them will make the hall of fame.

That's certainly a stretch. If people remember Dennis Johnson, Michael Cooper, and Alex English then they'll remember Klay, Jrue, and Dame.

Klay will be remembered for sure. His connection to Steph is all that would take.

Factor in the amount of team success and it's a no brainer.

I'm not saying they won't make the hall of fame and I'm not saying they're not good players. They're just boring.

I'd say 10.

Curry, Giannis, Klay, Embiid, Lillard, Luka, Tatum, Mitchell, Davis, and Booker

I agree with all of those so I must have miscounted.
