Finally, as previously mentioned, Steph Curry barely edges out James for first place with 99 games with 30-plus points on 70%-plus true shooting. The nine-time All-Star has played 15 seasons and counting.

Curry is over three years younger than James and just one year older than Harden. Meanwhile, he is still playing as well as ever. So, he should have a good chance of maintaining his lead atop the list before the three stars’ eventual retirements.
