Count the only three NBA stars with at least 15+ assists and 0 turnovers: Two active players are on the list

To activate the team's offense in a game, players need to have strong organization and passing skills, a broad field vision, and be able to accurately capture the weak rings in opponents' defense, or those fleeting defensive omissions, but in the fierce battle and fast game pace, they need to complete a large number of assists, which is often accompanied by many mistakes.

However, as the saying goes, "A mountain has a high mountain." There have been three players in the league. They are the only ones in the league who have sent 15+ assists in at least 10 games and made 0 mistakes in the whole game. Next, let's tell you who is on the list.

Third: Halliburton

11 games 15+ assists and 0 turnovers

Haliburton has become one of the representative players among the new generation of point guards. He relied on his own outstanding performance in solid and outstanding game. You should know that Halliburton started to lead the Pacers to the playoffs this season with the title of "the most overrated player". During the promotion, he eliminated the Cavaliers, who ranked first in the Eastern Conference in the regular season. In the Eastern Conference, Haliburton played a game of 15 assists and 0 turnovers, and also scored 32 points and 12 rebounds. As a result, he became the first player in the NBA to score at least 30 points, 10 rebounds, 15 assists and 0 turnovers in a single game in the playoffs.

When participating in the NBA draft, Halliburton was called the "little magician" by "Magician" Johnson. As his career deepened, Halliburton also began to show his "magic" to the fans. He used a unique way to activate the team's offense without excessive possession of the ball, so that all teammates could participate in the offense as much as possible, and used a simple and reasonable way of playing to transfer the ball to a reasonable position.

In order to continuously improve his game influence, Halliburton chose to build muscle, strengthen his confrontational ability, and develop more stable offensive skills, which were finally fulfilled in his subsequent games and turned into the key to the team's ability to build an advantage.

In the fifth season of his career, Halliburton ranked first in history with at least 20 points, 10 assists and 0 turnovers in a single game. This season, Halliburton played the best assist-and-turnover performance in the 5.6 league. He is the only player with an assist-and-turnover ratio ratio of more than 5.

Halliburton is only 25 years old, and there is still a chance to play more 15+ assists and 0 mistakes in the future, and lead the team to win, tearing the label of "the most overrated player". Because of the selfless team leader like Halliburton, it seems that the Pacers' future championship will not be an out of reach.

Second: Paul 15+ assists and 0 turnovers in 13 games, Paul's man-to-ball combination ability is excellent among point guard players. This has been constantly confirmed since the beginning of his career. As a small point guard who is only 1.88 meters tall, he can withstand huge defensive pressure and easily transport the ball to almost any corner of the court in the game.

Paul showed his skillful reading defense ability very early, and was able to deliver accurate passes like a "scalpel" in the game, driving his teammates has always been something he is particularly good at. This is also the key to why Paul ultimately helped the team achieve the best record in team history, whether in the Hornets, Clippers, Rockets, or Suns.

When Paul holds the ball and controls the team's game rhythm, it is often reassuring. He rarely makes mistakes. He averages double-digit assists per game in seven seasons in his career, and only once has three turnovers per game. In the 2023-24 season, Paul also set a new record for the best single-season assists and turnovers in his career. The assists and turnovers ratio in the season was 5.1, ranking fourth in the league. You should know that this is not as good as the "old point guard" at the end of his career.

Looking back at those games where Paul had 15+ assists and 0 turnovers in a single game, he did it during his time with the Hornets, Clippers, and Suns. Even in the playoffs where the game intensity was higher than the regular season, Paul also sent at least 15 assists in three single games, and there were no mistakes.

2007-08 season, just in the third year of the league, Paul is already competing for MVP with Kobe. In the first round of the playoffs against the Mavericks, Paul ushered in his first highlight performance of 15+ assists and 0 mistakes in his career. In the series G5, Paul scored 24 points, 11 rebounds, 15 assists and 0 mistakes in the whole game, helping the team end the series and advanced with a total score of 4-1. In the second round of G3 in 2014, Paul made another 16 assists and 0 mistakes.

In the 2020-21 season, 35-year-old Paul once again rushed to fifth place in the MVP list. In the second round of the Suns swept the Nuggets, Paul used practical actions to teach Jokic how to use assists to help the team win. In the G2 series, Paul scored 15 assists and 0 mistakes, and the Suns beat the Nuggets 25 points.

First: Stockton

15+ assists and 0 turnovers

Stockton has excellent back-to-body ball control ability, and his big hands allow him to easily control the rhythm of the dribble. When dealing with the details of the game, Stockton always chooses those safe and reasonable ways to understand each teammate's running habits, comfortable receiving methods, etc. As the "on-field brain" of the Jazz's game, Stockton helps the team to maintain precision operation like a machine for a long time.

Stockton has become the league's historical assist king in 19 years. 15,806 assists have beaten Paul behind him 3,307 times, and can still maintain this historical first title for a long time. In terms of turnover control, Stockton has also achieved the top level, with only 4,244 mistakes in his career, and has maintained an efficient and low-turnover performance for more than ten years..

Stockton's 14 games with 15+ assists and 0 turnovers came from the regular season. He only made 11 assists and 0 turnovers at most. On the playoff stage, Stockton's weak ability to fight was further magnified, and his personal scoring ability was not too strong, which often resulted in being restricted in the playoffs. This has also become an important influencing factor in the Jazz's delay in making breakthroughs in the playoffs. His only two games to the finals were met with the Dynasty Bulls led by Jordan, who missed the championship and failed to win the O'Brien Cup in his career.
