Introduction: As the world's largest basketball league, the NBA is a miracle place, for decades, countless tournaments, there are countless records, some of which we remember as soon as we hear it, such as Jordan's 6 championships and FMVP and 10 scoring kings, which we are all familiar with, because Jordan is a celebrity! So what records in the NBA have been set by the little guys? Here's a look at some of the historical records created by non-famous players:
1. Mark Eaton: Averaged 5.6 blocks per game in a single season
You may know that the player with the most blocks in his career is Olajuwon, but absolutely few fans know that the highest block per game in a single season in the regular season is Mark Eaton's 5.56 !!! Olajuwon's season top block was 4.5. Nicknamed "Mammoth", Eaton is a legendary star of the Utah Jazz, less famous than "Utah Double Flame"! But Eaton entered the Jazz earlier than the two of them. Eaton's career defensive ability is excellent, especially in blocking. He won 4 blocks and averaged 5.56 blocks per game in the 1984-85 season, which is still an NBA record! It is estimated that no one behind can break it.

At the time, some people even thought he could break the record of 30 assists in a single game, but he did not expect that Blake's madness stopped in the first quarter, and he "only" gave 17 assists in the whole game.
