The 'NBA top-seed top-scorers' quiz

While the fully-healthy Boston Celtics are rightfully getting plenty of attention in the East as the end of the regular season approaches, the conference’s top-seed is getting healthy as well. 

Detroit Pistons star Cade Cunningham, who had helped the Pistons lead the Eastern Conference for most of the season but missed the last 11 games recovering from a collapsed lung,  returned to the hardwood on Wednesday night. 

He played 26 minutes in the 137-111 win over the Giannis-less Milwaukee Bucks, scoring 13 points on 6-of-11 shooting while dishing out 10 assists and grabbing five rebounds. While Pistons fans are happy to have Cunningham back, it is especially nice that he’ll have opportunities for game action before jumping into the intensity of the postseason. 

The Pistons weathered the storm well without Cunningham, going 8-3 in those 11 contests with victories over the Lakers, Timberwolves and 76ers. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. The Pistons have locked themselves into the No.1 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs for the first time since 2006-07. With that being said, can you name the leading scorers for each top-seed in each conference since that season?

Good luck!

NOTE: Player must have played in at least 58 games that season to qualify for this quiz.
