86-87 Jordan was the last one to do it. The closest players since then were 05-06 Kobe with 2,832 in 80 games and 18-19 Harden with 2,818 in 78 games.

People saying it won’t happen but it will at some point. Depends on how some of these guys develop and how the rules change.
You’d have to average 37 or so and you’d have to play every game. Or average 40 and miss a few. Not gonna happen. Ever.
Wemby in his prime
None of the current active ones.
Seasons like Jordans, Harden’s, and Kobe’s are like… once every 15~20 year type things.
The amount of games guys play these days, too - he’d have to average well over 36ppg
Maybe Luka if Kyrie misses a big chunk of the season.
If Harden didnt do it i’m not sure anyone will do it soon, because it got pretty gross tbh.
Luka if he ever plays 82 games and continues to be ball dominant
My pick would have been a healthy Giannis but his scoring is bound to dip a little with Lillard. Maybe Tatum? Looking at last years leaders, he’s the closest in terms of games played, which would be the biggest factor.
What is a “season” moving forward?
If “tournaments” and “play ins” are not part of a season, and the season games decrease - Any record season totals are not likely to ever be broken at that point.
If the play in gets extended as part of the regular season, and the playoffs shortened, then regular season total records would go up, and playoff totals would go down.
