NBA: Ranking the Top 10 games of MVP contender LeBron James' season

#8 Against the Oklahoma City Thunder, 13th February 2018

Oklahoma City Thunder v Cleveland Cavaliers

Stat line: 37 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists

This might have been the quietest tally that LeBron put up all season long - pure, no-fuss-no-muss basketball at its brilliant best. He converted 14 of his 23 field goal attempts, including 3 out of his 7 3-point attempts. Though his free throw shooting suffered, it was never really bad enough for the Cavs as they ran out comfortable victors against the Oklahoma City Thunder by a margin of 120-112.

Mostly, the result was due to the bolstering of the Cavs squad at the trade deadline, as the likes of Jordan Clarkson and Larry Nance had premier starring roles in the match alongside LeBron. But it was LeBron's scoring that allowed them to create the separation that they were able to maintain from the 3rd quarter onwards.
