NBA consecutive scoring streaks: Player records to know - ESPN

What's more impressive: scoring 100 points in a single game or scoring 60-plus points in three straight games twice in the span of a month and a half?

Wilt Chamberlain accomplished both during a dominant stretch of the 1961-62 NBA season.

One of Chamberlain's many other NBA scoring records was broken by reigning NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. When the Oklahoma City Thunder guard scored 20 against the Boston Celtics on March 12th, it marked his 127th consecutive game with 20-plus points, breaking Chamberlain's record of 126 games (1961-63).

While SGA's streak is going strong, another came to an end. In December 2025, LeBron James' streak of consecutive games with 10-plus points ended at 1,297, after scoring eight points in a win against the Toronto Raptors.
