Although James Harden did not quite average over 35 points per game this NBA season, he still managed a ridiculous 34 as he won his third-straight scoring champion title.

James Harden is one of the greatest scorers of all time, and some of the numbers he puts up regularly would be laughed at if they weren't actually happening.

Harden was named an All-Star for the eighth time in his career this season while he also made the All-NBA first team.


#3 Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors)

Stephen Curry will be raring to go again in the NBA next season.

Stephen Curry, quite simply put, is one of the greatest point-guards of all time. When it comes to shooting, he most definitely ranks number one among anyone to have ever done it.

Curry injured himself at the start of the NBA season, which forced him to miss almost the entire campaign. With his Golden State Warriors team finishing bottom of the NBA as a consequence, Curry will be tasked with lifting them straight back to the top in 2020-21.

At 32, Curry is the highest-paid player in the league and will continue to be so next season.


#2 Kevin Durant (Brooklyn Nets)

Yet another player on this list who missed the 2019-20 NBA season due to injury is Kevin Durant who will have it all to prove with a new franchise and new teammates next season.

After leaving the Golden State Warriors for the Brooklyn Nets, the responsibility to win his new franchise their first NBA championship will fall squarely on Durant's shoulders. It will be interesting to see how he would respond.

The 32-year-old is one of the most efficient scorers the game of basketball has ever seen. It will be fun to watch him play again after a long wait.


#1 LeBron James (LA Lakers)

Los Angeles Lakers are hoping to win their 17th title with LeBron James.

For the 16th season in a row, LeBron James was named an All-Star and an All-NBA member.

King James continues to rack up the numbers and smash records even at the age of 35. He is one of the best examples of the adage 'age is just a number'.

James is a man on a mission right now as he aims to win his fourth NBA championship after leading the LA Lakers deep into the playoffs.
