The 'NBA postseason assist leaders' quiz

Nobody can debate the fact that James Harden has had a spectacular NBA career. He’s an 11-time All-Star, has seven All-NBA selections, three scoring titles, two assist titles and an MVP. But perhaps the most impressive accomplishment in his 16-year career is the fact that "The Beard" is yet to miss the NBA postseason.  

But he's still yet to capture an NBA championship or even play for one. If Harden wants to get to his first NBA finals, he’ll first need to get by Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, who fired their head coach Michael Malone just days before the end of the regular season and responded with a three-game winning streak to end the campaign 50-32. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Harden enters the 2025 NBA playoffs ninth all-time in career postseason assists. With that being said, how many of the players with the most playoff assists can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
