Best and worst NBA playoff performances, Apr 25, 2026
5 NBA players finished far above or below their regular-season usual on Apr 25, 2026, led by Ayo Dosunmu (43 points).
The Above and Below lists hold playoff games further from the player's regular-season usual than at least 95 in 100 comparable playoff games, so an ordinary night still fills both lists. 80 eligible games on this night, so about 4 would land in each list even on an ordinary night. Fewer minutes than usual shows minutes only, never a score. Each list runs from the largest Game Score change down. How the score works

Game Score against each player's own regular-season usual line, never blended with last season. How rare a gap is comes from NBA playoff games of 2023-24, 2024-25 and 2025-26, each postseason checked on a table fit on the others; the top tier is Rare. How the score works
