Greatest NBA Players To NEVER Score 50 Points In A Game

Most times when you look at hall of fame caliber NBA players they would've at least scored 50 points once in their career if not 100's of times. But in certain cases, there are legendary players that just never crack that 50 points threshold in a single game. Those are the players we are looking at today.

[@whiskershed]

malachi flynn dropping 50 is the most random thing i have ever seen

[@SweatbandSports]

Seriously!!

[@17thNO]

I know hunh.

[@alecxanderorbigo390]

Same here, along with Terrence Ross

[@piffromney1916]

Andre miller 55 on the mavs

[@MORON_Gaming]

Kevin Garnetts 47 was in January why is a lot of crazy scoring games are in January??

[@064razor]

New year, new possibilities. May as well start the year strong, that's my theory on that.

[@sebastiantheanalyst248]

New year New me

[@Supreme36074]

They’re just getting into it come Jan. Starting to open up their games .. probably peak that time of year .. as far as getting in top shape because of the amount of games vs not being that fatigued yet .

[@10cromosoma]

Dwight Howard, Paul George, Rajon Rondo

[@graveyard63]

Chauncey Billups

[@TheIcemanthomas]

Rondo shouldn’t count. His ass scoring 50 would be a miracle

[@Bigedub101]

​@@TheIcemanthomasI mean he had a 44 point game in 2012 playoffs u think.

[@skimmaster5000]

No,yes,no

[@jerrypastrana8176]

This goes to show that crazy numbers & statistics aren't the catalyst for greatness & tremendous performances & people have lost complete sight of that.

[@phantasyryder]

9:13 legendary dunk on Howard

[@Cyborgmustyah.]

Meanwhile wilt dropping multiple 70 point games with ease😭

[@MrDArkNsXXy]

ha HA ha HA Ha ha ha hA. Crazy world we live in, isn’t it Cyborgmustyah

[@Cameron439]

Bill Russel never scoring 40 is instantly wierd

[@TraBul]

top 3 defensive player all time tho

[@MrDArkNsXXy]

Weird, yes but not really instantly. I’ll prolly think about it later down the road

[@BennyLin718]

Dreymond most was 37 too but his was in a finals too

[@jaydoubleuem]

@@BennyLin718who asked

[@multibillionsspent]

Because he was a bum

[@A92CB7]

The Pacers scoring 157 the other night is wild

[@RAW_Reality]

If you'd have told me Shawn Kemp never scored 50+, I wouldn't have believed you, but you'd be right. 😳

[@robertdaniels-lane7321]

Magic Johnson, the embodiment of a pure traditional PG 🔥

[@marcdaddy33]

Part 2 please

[@1227weaverb]

Kawhi not scoring 50 was shocking to me. Once he became great offensively around 2016-17 I figured he had to hit 50 at least once 😂

[@ShottyA]

Kawhi never really had to bc his defense slows other teams down . Playoffs tho he was dropping 40 regular 2019 . If he j focused offense it’s be different . Same as Pg

[@Bigedub101]

​@@ShottyAu right and Kawhi was a pretty efficient shooter and not a chucker

[@DemonKingBadger]

Load management reduces his opportunity

[@life0093]

That’s because he misses 50 games a season

[@markhaya7187]

please have a part 2, you can lead with Pippen never scoring 50 (Playing with Jordan and 90s Low Scoring Games)

[@SweatbandSports]

Part 2 is up with Pippen!

[@jazzprince4447]

Chris Bosh on the Rap and Chris Paul on the Hornets were the only ones that surprised me

[@frankiethefrog1752]

Bosh was not that great on the raptors. One season was elite, multiple were “star” worthy.

[@historyofnetworktv]

Part 2!

[@TheHolyMrNut]

why are we surprised that past first point guards never got a 50 piece

[@SweatbandSports]

the fact that they got super close but never hit it is the surprising part

[@chrcowan]

Garnett doing everything on “both sides of the basketball” made me lol. I think you meant court, but I liked envisioning what both sides of the ball meant.

[@savcitynineties4845]

Before watching, I guarantee most of the names on here played the majority of their career between 1998-2017 Cause these players being so great but never dropping 50 I’m gonna blame it on the pace of play from the late 90s til about 7/8 years ago

[@SweatbandSports]

Top 50 sheeeeeesh, won't have enough time to explain every single one in depth! Maybe I can make multiple parts and piece them together

[@slanderman3296]

These guys are the top 1% of ballers. Anyway, anyone can score that much. Just like winning the lottery, it just happens randomly

[@jjkeim7374]

Random 50 plus point games or 40 points like out of role players or nobody’s

[@76ers_Apache]

Kawaii never scored 50 but got more rings than most of the ppl that scored 50

[@Rich-km7pr]

Kawhi and Steve are the most shocking

[@yardman9265]

lol

[@julianmachin]

Paul George has actually never scored 50 either

[@juliusmarkmanoos4625]

If garnett had a three point shot. He got 50.

[@SweatbandSports]

Easily!

[@alifherrfian7183]

these are aite but KD not scoring more than 55 is blasphemous to me since he is known as one of, if not the best scorer of all time.

[@waybak4271]

hes never in his career taken an insane amount of shot attempts, hes more of an efficient scorer than volume scorer like say a lillard, i doubt kd ever gets a 60 piece

[@skimmaster5000]

Meta World peace?

[@SweatbandSports]

Metta world peace got 39 two times, not sure if I would put him on the greatest of all time list to not score 50 personally

[@mindandthemuscle]

Isiah Thomas. He never gets mentioned for ANYTHING. Smfh. 🙄

[@SweatbandSports]

He’s been on my list for part 2. I just like to test subjects and see if the audience likes something before making a 50 min video on a certain topic 👍

[@chilout2496]

Calm down. It’s the first one

[@sebastiantheanalyst248]

[@frankiethefrog1752]

Bosh on the thumbnail? He’s extremely overrated. He had one truly elite season for the raptors as their number one option. They still were not a good team. His playoff stats regardless as a 3rd option for lots of it were still not star worthy. 12 and 7 in the finals is terrible for an guy who many claim was a “superstar”. If he wasn’t needed to score 20ppg he could have at least averaged double digit rebounds.

[@TheIcemanthomas]

So we just gonna forget that he was aksed to move out of the paint and basically be a spot up guy due to his two costars not being great shooters right? Revisionist history is ridiculous. Tell me who was it that got the board that led to the game 6 saving shot by Allen again? Oh….

[@hulksmash4563]

Weird for KG not to score 50 but he has more "skills" than Giannis Meanwhile all Giannis does is dunk and has 60+ crazy

[@theonlygoodonehere2259]

its basically because like Kawhi, they don't statpad to go for 50, sometimes they are just contempt with a high 40 point game, all they care about is winning, its a reason why that celtics team worked so well together, and needed someone like KG

[@hulksmash4563]

@@theonlygoodonehere2259 LOL So Jayson Tatum, Jrue Holiday, Jaylen Brown. All of these players statpadded too base on your logic right? Ok noted LOL

[@theonlygoodonehere2259]

@@hulksmash4563 yeah exactly, they were stat padding, sometimes its ok to pad for 50 to get a point across, and sometimes its bad to force a 50 point game, hopefully you understand my POV

[@willjackson4354]

Seeing bill Russell shoot like that just plummeted his nba ranking for me

No one cares about ur nba ranking. U do realize he started playing before the jump shot became a thing right? U can’t sing him because of his age..
