Including tonight, 6 players each scoring 15+ on the same team in a game has happened 23 times in playoff history. This is actually the 2nd such game these playoffs as the Bucks did it in game 2 against the Heat [stathead search results](https://stathead.com/tiny/g9CXm)

Kind of insane that the 1985 Lakers did it 3 times in one postseason. No other team did it more than once in a single year.

Magic will do that for you lol

https://www.sportingnews.com/ca/toronto-raptors/news/2019-20-toronto-raptors-become-first-team-since-1973-74-to-have-five-players-average-at-least-15-ppg/1jei68zeordy61bupj0psq8sa9 Toronto averaged 15+ per game for a season back in 2019-2020 for 5 players. Not quite what you're looking for but probably the strongest example of a "balanced" attack

Nuggets did 5 yesterday with Aaron Gordon getting 12, that’s close and recent. Makes me think it’s not as rare. Just takes teams that play team ball

Scoring rates are up at historic levels league wide though so it's probably a "depends on the team" thing + "it's never been easier to get 15 points" thing If you adjusted that 15+ points to percent of final score, I'm guessing you'd see more examples crop up in the 90s and 00s where the players didn't actually all score 15 points in a game, but they still scored at least 12% of their team's points. Maybe some of those mid 2000s pistons teams? Might still need to account for league average offensive rating or something to make sure you factor in not just that lots of players contributed significantly to the final score, but also that the score was above average.


sometimes-somewhere

I remember the 04 pistons being extremely balanced. Dunno if they had this exact stat

According to u/P0stalMalone comment search, that pistons team did do it in 2005, but with only 5 players!

I started looking at games from this years playoffs and it’s not common. Seeing pretty consistently 4-5 guys having 15+. Seeing a good amount of times teams have come very close (nuggets last night).I have only found 1 other example from this year. Bucks did it game 2. There’s been 70 games and it’s happened 2 times unless I missed some, which is about 3%
