5 players with the longest streak of 20+ points per game in NBA history

#3 Oscar Robertson - 79 games

Oscar Robertson and Russell Westbrook.

Oscar Robertson is often remembered as the first NBA player to average a triple-double in an entire season. His all-around game made him an NBA legend, but Robertson was a great scorer too.

Throughout his 14-year career, the legendary point guard averaged 25.7 points per game with a 48.5% field-goal efficiency. He won one scoring championship in his career, while also leading the NBA in assists six times (third-most in league history).

Moreover, he had the third-largest streak of games with at least 20 points, with 79 consecutive games between October 22nd, 1963, and October 20th, 1964.

#2 Wilt Chamberlain - 92 games

Wilt.

Perhaps the most unbelievable scoring machine ever seen in the NBA during his prime, Wilt Chamberlain posted some of the most absurd scoring records in league history.

Chamberlain had the second-highest career average of points per game in NBA history, at 30.1, slightly behind Michael Jordan.

He also owns the record for the highest average of points per game in a single NBA season, with a crazy 50.4 in the 1961-62 campaign.

Chamberlain also holds the two largest streaks of consecutive games with at least 20 points. From February 26th, 1963 to March 18th, 1964, Chamberlain had 92 consecutive games with at least 20 points each night.

#1 Wilt Chamberlain - 126 games

Wilt Chamberlain dunks the ball.

The seven-time NBA scoring champion, Chamberlain, was simply a scoring machine during his days in the league, especially early in his career.

Not only did he win the MVP award as a rookie (the first of two players to ever do it), but Chamberlain also established some unbreakable records. Most of his records are well-known, such as 100-point game in 1962 or a 55-rebound night.

However, there are other marks that do not look beatable for the foreseeable future, and one of those is his streak of 126 consecutive games with at least 20 points.

That streak from the four-time MVP happened between October 19th, 1961 and January 19th, 1963, while he was playing for the Philadelphia/San Francisco Warriors.
