I'd say it's tough but not impossible in this offense-friendly era. The three guys I'm looking at are CP3, Isiah Thomas, and Allen Iverson.Those would be historic numbers for a guy his size right? How sustainable is that?
AI cracked 30 ppg, but never came close to the efficiency we're talking about.
Thomas spent 5 straight years over 20 ppg and comfortably above 45% from the field (about 47% for all 5 years combined) in a much tougher defensive era.
And in NO, a young Chris Paul was hitting that 20 ppg range AND cracking 49-50% from the field for multiple seasons.
So short guys have cracked 30 ppg, and short guys have put up very efficient 20 ppg seasons. But combining the two would be damn near unheard of (Tiny Archibald had a couple of seasons like that, but I haven't seen nearly enough of that era to project much).
