scoring leader

Points race winner

The scoring leader is the player who has accumulated the most points in a league, tournament, or competition.

In team sports like basketball and hockey, scoring leaders are tracked throughout the season: She's been the scoring leader since week three.

The term applies to both current standings and final results: the all-time scoring leader in franchise history.
