Larry Steele was the first player to lead the league in steals with 2.7 a game. His nickname was “Man of Steal.”
The first player to lead the league in blocks was Elmore Smith. Not quite as cool of a name.

Some mad lad probably had 100 steals in a game, but no one tracked that before the 70s. So he remains unknown
