Wouldn’t be shocked if Matrix had a 47/18 game…I don’t think he ever had double digit assists though.
Shawn Marion's career highs are 44/24/8
Alvan Adams - 47/19/13
Charles Barkley - 47/33/14
Shaquille O'Neal - 61/28/10
Truck Robinson - 51/27/8 (Truck was a beast with New Orleans in 1977-78)
Connie Hawkins - 44/21/13 (57/24/13 in the ABA)
Kevin Durant - 55/18/16
Jason Kidd - 43/19/25
Steve Nash - 44/13/22
Kevin Johnson - 44/13/25
Paul Westphal - 49/10/14

He was pretty close.. I recalled him having that monster game but thought he might have got the triple double.

KJ's 25-assist game is tied for the 5th highest in NBA history.
He's #7 in career assists per game (9.1), #10 in assists in a season (991) and one of five players to average 12+ assists in a season (Stockton, Magic, Kevin Porter, Isiah)

I think these are just career highs, but not necessarily in the same game. I do remember KJ getting a triple double in the first half once(or maybe it was that he almost got it, don’t fully remember).
I'm not sure he'll be out of the league as long as he's willing to take smaller and smaller deals. Most people aspire to make more money as their careers progress; ayton said "hold my beer".

Ayton is far from the worst center in the NBA. But he has a quality that endangers his future: he irritates every team he plays for. Eventually everybody wants him out at any cost. He might find a home on some shitty team like the Hornets or Pelicans or something, someplace where they have no hopes or expectations anyway and would be fine with his half-assed 12 and 7 games or whatever he feels like contributing.

The light is bright in LA. Of course, they could make the playoffs and he could look good for a round and maybe help them win some games which could rehab his value a bit. But right now, he's down pretty bad.

That’s the frustrating part about him…. He’ll more than likely turn it on just enough to warrant another team signing him but I’ll stand by that he’ll never get more than 2 years because teams don’t want him sandbagging it once he signs.

6 points and 2 rebounds tonight and the least starter minutes by far.

Well he can’t help that the coach and teammates don’t know how to utilize him. Obviously he can’t get numbers if he’s not out there and is a product of JJ’s, lebrons and Luka’s lack of talent; just don’t know how you guys don’t see it.
