Where LeBron James ranks all-time in the NBA for assists; how high he could go

CLEVELAND, Ohio - LeBron James ranks 13th in the NBA all-time for assists and could eventually crack the top 10, or higher. (See complete rankings below.)

James passed Lenny Wilkens with a career-high 17 assists against the Washington Wizards on Monday, raising his total to 7,227.

Next on the list is Maurice Cheeks, who had 7,392 career assists. James is on target to pass Cheeks in mid to late March.

Next up would be Rod Strickland at No. 11. But that could take until late next season. James trails Strickland by 645 assists.
