The 'NBA assist champions' quiz

Created on August 6, 2025 | Total tries: 268 | Average Score: 42.7 out of 49 (87%) | Quiz FAQ

Atlanta Hawks star guard Trae Young is entering the fourth year of his five-year, $215+ million contract, and with only a player-option separating Young from free agency, he’s looking for his next deal. But ESPN’s Marc Spears reported that Ice Trae is apparently “ disappointed,” that he hasn’t heard anything from the Hawks about a contract extension yet.

Young has been the face of the Hawks since coming over from the Mavericks in the Draft day trade for Luka Doncic, and is coming off of his fourth-career All-Star season in 2024-25. But outside of a run to the Eastern Conference Finals in 2021, the Hawks haven’t gotten out of the first round of the playoffs in the now seven-year Trae Young era.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Despite going 40-42 and losing two Play-In games to miss the playoffs, Young still averaged 24.2 points and a career-best 11.6 assists-per-game to lead the NBA. With that being said, can you name every NBA assist champion since 1976-77?

Good luck!
