Well, try as I might to get the list down to 50, it appears that we have a 6-way tie for 46th worst Game Score (around Negative 4.8) , so we have to go with 51.

Congrats to the SUPER overrated...
Kristaps Porzingis for winning "worst Game Score of 2017-18" (pre-NBA Finals Edition)
by posting a ridiculously terrible Negative 8.5. In a home Knicks WIN(!!!) against the Celtics, Porzingis played 23 minutes, was 0-11 including 0-3 from 3-point range, 1 of 2 from the line. He did manage to put up 5 rebounds and 1 assist (to 2 turnovers and 4 fouls). 0 steals, 0 blocks.
Josh Jackson's terrible 22 minute effort in a loss to Houston narrowly lost out to Kristaps (only Negative 8.1), probably because Jackson was 2-2 from the line and only had 3 fouls.
Some other notable efforts:
-- Dennis Smith makes the list while actually making 5 shots and having 5 assists, but that was not enough to offset his 5-17 with 9 turnovers and 6 fouls.
-- Of the bottom 51 performances, only 3 were in the playoffs thus far
-- Trevor Ariza's recent Negative 5.3 (0 points, 0-12 including 0-9 from 3, did have some other positive stats)
-- Paul George against Utah (2-16, 6 turnovers, 5 fouls) for Negative 5.5
-- Tying with PG13, Bojan Bogdanovic (1-9, 0 rebounds, 3 turnovers, 5 fouls).
FOLKS APPEARING ON THE LIST MORE THAN ONCE
Dragan Bender 2x
Josh Jackson 3x
Kyle Kuzma 2x
Frank Ntilikina 2x
Garrett Temple 3x
Those are your Final 4, so, who did the worst in those sucky games?
Bender had the 6th and 44th worst games
Josh Jackson had the 2nd, 30th and 38th worst games
Kuzma had the 7th and 37th worst games
Ntilikina 8th and 20th worst
Temple had the 3rd, 17th and 46th worst games.
On the basis of more terrible games (3 versus 2), I give Temple the win - his average terrible game was the 22nd worst while Jackson's were, on average, the 23rd worst.
Congrats Garrett Temple.
