NBA stats that sound FAKE but are TRUE

Swati Bhatia

Here’s a look at some of the most mind-blowing NBA stats!

The NBA is full of moments that stretch the imagination, where reality seems more like fiction. From jaw-dropping individual performances to unbelievable statistical feats, the league’s history is filled with records that sometimes sound too wild to be true.

Here’s a look at some of the most mind-blowing NBA stats that sound fake but are, incredibly, 100% real.

Jayson Tatum >> Clippers team

Jayson Tatum has singlehandedly scored more points in the Conference Finals than the entire LA Clippers franchise. Tatum has put up 636 points, while the Clippers, despite being around for decades, have just 622 points in Conference Finals history.

Draymond Green – The Shooting Guard

Known for his defense, not scoring, Draymond Green shocked the world in Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals by dropping 32 points, including 6 of 8 three-pointers.

Ben Wallace: The Defensive Machine

Ben Wallace is the only player in NBA history to have finished his career with more blocks than personal fouls and more steals than turnovers. His defensive prowess made him a one-of-a-kind force on the court. He recorded 2,137 blocks, 2,078 fouls, 1,369 steals, and 1,061 turnovers in his career.

Zach LaVine has already made 1,130 three-pointers as a member of the Chicago Bulls. In comparison, Michael Jordan, widely regarded as the greatest player of all time, made just 555 three-pointers in his entire Bulls career.

Tracy McGrady’s ‘tracer bullet’ scoring

Tracy McGrady’s incredible 13 points in 33 seconds against the San Antonio Spurs in 2004 is one of the most mind-blowing individual performances ever. He single-handedly turned a 8-point deficit into a victory.

Klay Thompson’s scoring spree

Klay Thompson scored 60 points in just 29 minutes against the Indiana Pacers in 2016. Even crazier? He achieved this while taking just 11 dribbles and holding the ball for a mere 90 seconds of possession time.

Tony Snell’s quintet donut

Tony Snell once played 28 minutes for the Milwaukee Bucks against the Utah Jazz on February 24, 2017, and recorded exactly 0 points, 0 assists, 0 rebounds, 0 blocks, and 0 steals.
