The 'Active NBA 50-point scorers' quiz

The Minnesota Timberwolves are just one win away from eliminating the Denver Nuggets from the NBA Playoffs, but they’re going to have to get it done while dealing with significant injuries. Superstar Anthony Edwards is dealing with a knee injury that is expected to keep him out at least for the rest of this series, while Donte DiVincenzo tore his right achilles in Game 4.

Without Edwards and DiVincenzo in Game 5, Julius Randle stepped up with 27 points, nine rebounds and six assists. Ayo Dosunmu also added 18 in his first start of the postseason, but the Wolves still fell 125-113 on the road. 

If Minnesota is going to close out the Nuggets in Game 6 at home, they’ll likely need a similar performance from Randle.

Which brings us to today’s quiz.  Randle has proven he can carry an offense in the past with a 50-point game under his belt. With that being said, can you name every active NBA player to score 50 points in at least one game?

Good luck!
