OBSERVATIONS:

Westbrook (three times) and Harden (twice), the two frontrunners for the MVP trophy, are the only players to have multiple 50-point games this season.

Davis is one of only four NBA players to have ever reached the 50-point mark in a season-opener, joining the likes of Michael Jordan, Elgin Baylor and Wilt Chamberlain, according to ESPN Stats & Info.

Four out of these 13 high-scoring games resulted in a loss (marked with an “L” above) following the 50-point scoring.

Harden has two of the top three “best games” of the season, according to ESPN's Best Perfomances Chart with a 53-16-17 and 51-13-13 triple-double lines.

Booker's 70-point gem owns the best game of the season with a 99.5 player game rating — 100 being equivalent to a perfect game.
