How to play the NBA career assists game

This one ranks NBA players by career assists. Cards show the name, and players still in the league are marked active. One playmaker begins on the line with his assist total showing. Slot each new card into a gap among those already down. A correct pick reveals the number; a miss still puts him in his true spot but costs one of three lives.

Point guards dominate, but a few forwards who ran the offense appear too, and they're easy to underrate. Active players are still adding to their totals. The lower half of the list is crowded with guards whose numbers are close, so knowing how long each one played and how much he had the ball is what separates them.
