The 'Yearly NBA playoffs points-per-game leaders' quiz

The Cleveland Cavaliers are in big trouble. Not only were they dismantled by the Indiana Pacers in Game 4 to fall down 3-1 in the series, they may also be without their most important player for Game 5. Donovan Mitchell is a "game-time decision," according to NBA insider Shams Charania after he re-aggravated an ankle injury before Game 4 and didn't return from the locker room with the Cavs trailing 80-39 at halftime. 

Which brings us to today's quiz. The Cavs got to 64 regular season wins on the back of well-rounded offensive contributions, but losing a player with Mitchell's pedigree will be hard to replace. With that being said, how many of the yearly NBA playoff leaders in points-per-game in the post-merger era (1977 to present) can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
