5 lowest scoring games of LeBron James' NBA Playoffs career

#3 10 points against Portland Trail Blazers (2020 NBA Playoffs)

LeBron James' first-ever playoff campaign with the LA Lakers ended with him winning his fourth championship in the NBA. LeBron and the Lakers were formidable for the majority of that postseason campaign as no team in the Western Conference was able to force a Game 6 against the Purple and Gold.

The Lakers faced Damian Lillard's Portland Trail Blazers in the first round. They desperately needed LeBron James to step up in Game 2 as they were down 1-0 to start the series. James did not enjoy a great game scoring-wise, though, as he recorded only 10 points on the night. He shot just 4 of 11 from the field and 0 of 3 from the three-point line but had six rebounds and seven assists to his name.

The Lakers won the tie by a huge margin of 111-108, nonetheless, as Anthony Davis (31 points) and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (16 points) delivered solid performances for the team.

#2 8 points against Dallas Mavericks (2011 NBA Playoffs)

LeBron James

LeBron James' first NBA playoffs campaign with the Miami Heat did not go as planned. Despite forming a solid trio alongside Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, James and the Heat lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the 2011 NBA Finals by a 4-2 margin.

The Heat had a terrific chance to go 3-1 up in that Finals series but squandered that opportunity, losing the Game 4 contest 83-86. LeBron James produced one of his worst outings ever in a Heat jersey. He scored only eight points on the night, on 3 of 11 shooting from the field and 0 of 3 shooting from the three-point line.

He had nine rebounds and seven assists, but it did not make much difference as the Miami Heat desperately needed him to contribute in the scoring department.

#1 7 points against Indiana Pacers (2014 NBA Playoffs)

LeBron James battled against the Indiana Pacers in several NBA Playoff campaigns throughout his stint in the Eastern Conference with the Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat. His teams emerged victorious every single time, and he was largely responsible for it.

In the 2014 NBA Playoffs, though, James had an unusually poor scoring night against the Pacers. He scored just 7 points that night, the lowest tally in a playoff game in his career so far, shooting only 2 of 10 from the field.

James did not contribute much otherwise either, tallying just 2 rebounds and four assists. The Heat ended up losing that tie 93-90 and also missed the opportunity to close the series and win it by a 4-1 margin.
