Reading a leaderboard for player props

A season average is the long view. For a prop, set it beside the player's recent games, his minutes and his matchup: the player page shows his last ten games, and the NBA Data Lab can cut the same stat to any window of games, home or away, or with and without a teammate.

NBA points per game leaders: questions

Who leads the NBA in points per game in 2026/27?
Luka Doncic (LAL) at 38.6 over 11 games, ahead of Victor Wembanyama (30.3) and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (29.7).
Who qualifies for the leaderboard?
5+ games. A player below the bar is left off, so a few strong games do not top the list.
Where do the numbers come from?
Official box scores of every regular season game, the same rows as the NBA Data Lab boards and NBA Postgame, so the numbers match across them.
Can I sort by other stats or filter by team and games?
Yes, in the NBA Data Lab: any stat, any window of games, home or away, starters or bench, and splits with and without a teammate.
