Coming off an NBA Finals appearance for the first time, LeBron won the only scoring title of his career to date and led the NBA with 794 field goals. He also averaged 40-plus minutes per game for the fourth time in his career, but the Cavs regressed to a 45-37 record after recording back-to-back 50-win seasons.
No. 12 seed: 2015-16 season – Cavaliers
G | MPG | PPG | RPG | APG |
76 | 35.6 | 25.3 | 7.4 | 6.8 |
LeBron became the first player in NBA history to average at least 25 points per game for 12 consecutive seasons – a streak that remains active in 2020 — despite playing the fewest minutes per game out of 11 seasons in a Cleveland uniform. He then memorably delivered the first championship in Cavaliers history, leading his team back from a 3-1 deficit to defeat the Warriors in the NBA Finals.
