This might not be very popular, but Joel Embiid is currently leading the league in PPG at 31.9 ppg. He is having another really good season.

Rounding out the top 10:

  1. KD (31.4 ppg)

  2. Luka Doncic (30.5 ppg)

  3. SGA (30.4)

  4. Giannis (29.7)

  5. Steph (29.7)

  6. Jokic (28.2)

  7. Jayson Tatum (27.8)

  8. Anthony Edwards (26.7)

  9. Tyrese Maxey (26.3)

This list matches the eye test very well.

    No one really thinks of Embiid as an all-time great scorer (yet), but 3 straight scoring titles would place him in truly elite company

    Booker averaging 29.6 next to KD. Just doesn’t have the games played to make the list yet. He has played 8 of our 16 games

      I think players will start respecting Maxey more and sag off Embiid a bit more to give him more space to drive

      Jo’s assists are up significantly. He had 9 tonight. He will have triple doubles when Oubre is back in the lineup.

    Embiid is definitely one of the best regular season scorers of all time
