Players With The Most Fastbreak Points In The 2025-26 NBA Regular Season (Min. 30 GP)
LeBron is quite easily the best fast break player ever
I know you are talking about his whole career, but man 2009 Lebron in transition…I don’t even know if best ever does it justice
I feel like there’s a couple of plays that were impossible to stop in their heyday: Dirk fadeaway Stockton and Malone PNR Kareem Skyhook And lebron on the fast break. There was no stopping that freight train
I would add Steph curling off multiple screens, Harden step back 3, Giannis driving, and (homer take) Siakam spin moves.
Hmm which is more unstoppable between Steph coming off a ton of screens or Steph after someone bites heavy on a pump fake and shuffles for a side-step 3?
Either 09/10 or Both he was crazy on fast breaks on both sides of the ball. Either he scored you the other team didn’t score (chase downs) etc.
2013 also
don’t forget the patented Tony Parker Floater
the L-Train
That’s an absolutely insane stat. The man is 41 in his 23rd year.
He’s probably playing catch for half those. Luka chucks a couple passes down court a game it seems like. Bron won’t come back on defense when it looks like an easy bucket for the other team and then Luka inbounds it or gets a quick rebound and straight launches it across court.
The steal taps to a teammate 2-on-1s are cool to still see.
You’re not hating and you’re objectively right. Lebron definitely moves much ahead of the ball at times for the transition half court pass. It leaves defense vulnerable for 3-4 secs if the pass fails. But lebron steal taps are still golden
Why are you downvoted? also, that is exactly what you should do.
Getting downvoted for speaking a fact. Reddit at its finest
It’s a fact but like, that’s half of what a transition bucket is… The impressive part is that a 41 year old is leading the league in the “running down the court and dunking it before the other team gets there” stat. Being confidently incorrect and snarky about it, reddit at its finest.
Not running back on defense, he’s not actually beating anyone down the court if it’s a cherry picking. He beats no one cuz he didn’t run back. That’s the point bro
Look he’s amazing at age 41 leading the league awesome, but as people who have watched the games a lot we can comment that he gets a lot of those by cherry picking without needing a storm of downvotes
He cherry picks more than any player in the history of the nba.
Baby brained comment of the day
Then why doesn’t everyone else do it? Are they stupid?
Why doesn’t every player simply just get the most stats?
Typically players are required to get back on defense.
5.71 does not round up to 5.8

Insane that a player in his 23rd year can lead a stat filled with other younger guys
Tbf he constantly hits the break as soon as a shot goes up but yea he’s still incredible for his age
Josh Hart in 85th at 2.2 is way lower than I would have guessed
He crashes on everything
Man that’s insane. He is 41 years old!😮💨
What would Giannis’ be if you remove the 3 games he had to leave early due to injury?
Christian Braun still up there, definitely taken a step back from last year but I believe he’ll get it back as the chemistry improves, been seeing a lot of Jokic to Braun outlet passes in recent games.
This such a disingenuous stat lol
Anybody who is able to use like a minuscule of context knows lebrons 5.8 and Maxey’s 5.7 aren’t remotely comparable
I feel like 2 of his 5.8 a game are cherry picking. Don’t get me wrong, Lebron is a freak but let’s not forget the context around these stats.
For sure he leaks out for the easy buckets but having the ability to overpower and catch the ball like a wr is a very real skill he has.
Having Luka feeding you with his defensive rebounding skill is also a cheat code.
I feel like none of his 5.8 points a game are cherry picking
