Juwan Howard:

22 PPG, 8.4 RPG, 4.4 APG, FG% .49

[CBS7]

Ron Harper 86/87 - Cleveland Cavaliers
22.9 ppg - 4.8 rpg - 4.8 apg - 2.5 spg - 45.5 FG%

He was a rookie.

[TrueLAfan]

Kevin Porter, 1978-9
15.4 ppg, 2.5 rpg, 13.4 apg, .481 fg%, .722 ft%, 1.9 spg

Basically a John Stockton season.

Marvin Webster, 1977-8
14.0 ppg, 12.6 rpg, 2.5 apg, .502 fg%, .629 ft%, 2.0 bpg

14 and 13 with 2 blocks while shooting 50% plus. A one-season wonder.

Bob Kaufmann, 1970-1
20.4 ppg, 10.7 rpg, 4.5 apg, .471 fg%, .740 ft%

Terrific player. When Bob McAdoo was a rookie, he was a backup to Kaufmann.

Tony Campbell, 1989-90
23.2 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 2.6 apg, .457 fg%, .787 ft%, 1.4 spg

One word: expansion.

Bob Rule, 1968-9
24.0 ppg, 11.5 rpg, 1.8 apg, .469 fg%, .682 ft%, 2.0 bpg

A potential HOF player that blew a knee out at 25.

Clark Kellogg, 1982-3
20.1 ppg, 10.6 rpg, 2.8 apg, .479 fg%, .741 ft%, 1.7 spg

Nice. I almost listed Porter and Kellogg on one of my posts.

How about Jim McDaniels with 71/72 ABA Carolina team:

26.8 ppg - 14.0 rpg

He apparantly hooked up with the NBA Sonics later in the same season and put up about 9.5 and 7. Which were his career NBA highs, he averaged 5.3 and 4.4 in under 200 career NBA games.

Pervis Ellison 91/92 for Washington

20.0 ppg - 11.2 rpg - 2.9 apg - 0.9 spg - 2.7 bpg - 53.9 FG%

Too bad about the injuries he could never escape.

Because he had almost 500 assists (493). Which as a forward is a pretty rare feat only accomplished by guys like Bird, Pippen, Hill, Hondo, and a few others. It also was, by far, his career high. His second best assist per game year was 4.4 so the 6.0 is an outlier. Alot of forwards have a season where they average around 4.4, but very few reach 6 a game.

It's an outlier, sure, but notice that he had five other seasons at 4.3+ AST36 and that the season in question reflected the highest usage rate of his career as well as the most minutes played.

Too, he posted three other seasons with AST% over 20, and his AST% in 92-93 was only 3% higher than it was in those years, roughly, so it's not as huge an outlier as it seems on initial inspection.

Remember too that he flitted between SF, PF and C, which affected his passing depending on team and such.

Freeman Williams 1980-1981
19.3/2/2.3 in 24 minutes. That's 32 points/40. He wasn't incredibly efficient and couldn't do anything else worth a damn, but that is world class chucking.

Fat Lever
19.8/9.3/8/7.9 with 2.7 steals. Gaudy stats on an insanely fast paced team. Michael Adams also had a pretty stacked season one year on an awful Denver team.

Manute Bol lines are fun too. He almost always had more blocks than points, and he was used as a 3 point "specialist" one year.

Danny Fortson in 04-05 averaged more free throw attempts than field goal attempts. I wonder how often that happens.

Prime Terry Porter: {drool}

1990-91 .515fg% .415 3p% .823 ft% 3.8 rebounds 8.8 assists 2.1 steals 2.6 turnovers 18.7 points per game

Super efficient, clutch, under appreciated.

[Point forward]

Mark Jackson 1996-97
9.9 / 11.4a / 4.8r
Almost a double double for a guy who was perfectly average in many ways.

Eric Snow 2002-3
12.9 / 6.6a / 3.5r / 1.6 s
Not bad for a guy who is the current synonym for scoring inability.

Jeff Hornacek 2000-1
21.0 / 5.0a / 5.1r with .512 FG% and .439 from 3pt land
The proof that you can score 20ppg w/o much athletic ability.

[El Turco]

jim jackson avg around 25 ppg and 5 rpg before getting injuried in mid 90s, IIRC.

[carrottop12]

Dino Radja 95-96.

19.7/9.8/1.6/1.5

[ponder276]

Antoine Walker. How many players have put up back to back seasons where they play 78+ games, score 20+ ppg, and shoot UNDER .400 from the field each season? Truly a remarkable feat!

(in 01/02 he played 81 games and scored 22.1 ppg shooting .394 from the field, then in 02/03 he played 78 games and scored 20.1 ppg shooting .388 from the field)

Edit: he also averaged 3.10 to/g in 01/02, and 3.33 to/g in 02/03.

Mike James 05-06 Raptors:
20.3 PPG 5.8 APG 44% 3PT 47% FG
