If this list only took into account statistics, Chamberlain would have probably been at the top. He began his NBA career by averaging 37.6 points and 27 rebounds in his rookie year. Not just that, he took home the scoring title for the first six years of his career.

It would be safe to give Wilt Chamberlain the nickname "Scoring Machine". Not only is he the only player to average 50.4 points per season, he is also the only player to score 100 points in a single regular season game.

Wilt was named the league MVP four times, three in a row from 1965-68. He is a two-time NBA Champion but that came after six shots at the ultimate prize.
