1 | Giannis Antetokounmpo | 36.8 | 6'11" |
2 | Kristaps Porzingis | 32.0 | 7'3" |
3 | Anthony Davis | 31.7 | 6'10" |
4 | Blake Griffin | 29.0 | 6'10" |
6 | DeMarcus Cousins | 28.3 | 6'11" |
7 | Nikola Vucevic | 27.7 | 7'0" |
Last season, only two bigs finished the year among the top 10 scorers, those being Davis (28.0) and Cousins (27.0).
