#1 Stephen Curry (741 points in NBA Finals)

Stephen Curry

It comes as no surprise to see Stephen Curry at the top of this list considering how successful he has been in the postseason with the Golden State Warriors. Surprisingly, the two-time league MVP hasn't won an NBA Finals MVP award yet, but all of his performances during the Warriors' three championship runs were sensational.

He scored 741 points in 29 NBA Finals games, averaging 26.5 points per contest on 42% field goal shooting. He holds the record for the most 3s in an NBA Finals game (9) as well. Curry has converted at least four 3s in each of his NBA Finals game appearances.
