LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are clinging to the last spot in the Western Conference play-in tournament, hoping to hold off the San Antonio Spurs and salvage what they can from this forgettable season. It won’t be easy, as James is literally limping to the finish line, having sprained his ankle in a game against the New Orleans Pelicans. LeBron described the pain as ” horrible,” and head coach Frank Vogel referred to the injury as “maybe the biggest blow to our psyche.” It’s clear things are getting dire in La La Land, and if the team doesn’t even qualify for a play-in spot, the Lakers’ roster could look very different come next season. Which brings us to today’s quiz of the day. The injury may not only cost the Lakers a trip to the postseason, but it may also cost LeBron the scoring title. Even so, in NBA history, only 30 players have averaged 30 or more points per game over the course of the regular season, including LeBron this season. So with that in mind, how many of the 30 can you name in five minutes? Good luck!
