Six of the Seven Top Scorers Stand at Least 6'10"

Small ball, schmall ball. In 2017, the big dudes are getting theirs.

Rank Player Average Points Height
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).

So to recap: The Warriors are 2-2, and a bunch of tall dudes are getting all the buckets, which begs the question, is the era of small ball era over? Stay tuned...
