LeBron James - 50 Points vs Wizards, March 11

LeBron James' first appearance on this list comes after he scored 50 points against the Wizards, becoming the oldest player to register multiple 50 points games in an NBA season. He managed the total after an efficient 18-of-25 shooting from the field.
