Micahel Jordan is no stranger to holding NBA records, and the Chicago Bulls legend unsurprisingly holds the record of most 30 points per game seasons. Jordan first reached the tally during the 1986-87 season, as he averaged a career-high 37.1 points - and the Chicago legend went on to average at least 30 in the following six seasons.

Jordan's streak came to an end after his surprise retirement in 1993, although the superstar soon returned to win three more championships - and Jordan sealed the record by averaging 30 points for one final time during the 1995-96 season.

Jordan also retired as just the second player in history to average 30 points per game over the course of his career. Ultimately, Jordan's record appears unbeatable, and few players will even get halfway to his eight seasons of averaging at least 30.
