NBA ranking: The top scoring duos ever (relative to team performance)

HoopsHype ranks highest-scoring duos in league history, including LeBron and Wade, Shaq and Kobe, Durant and Westbrook, Jordan and Pippen.

Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo are combining to put up 44.75 percent of the total points scored by the Milwaukee Bucks thus far in 2024-25, which surely sounds like a lot to you.

Well, according to our research, that mark doesn’t put Lillard and Antetokounmpo even close to the Top 30 scoring duos ever, at least if we’re judging on the percentage of a team’s total points scored by a duo for a single season.

That means, for this exercise, we’re not just adding up Player A and Player B’s points per game to figure out the NBA’s top scoring duos of all time. Instead, we are adding each player’s total points scored in a season and dividing each duo’s mark by their team’s total points scored that year to find the highest percentages of a team’s total points scored by duos.

Below, check out the NBA’s top scoring duos ever.
