Also the second highest in 3p% on that list. :clap:
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

If you would have gone back a couple of more seasons, KJ would have been on it at least once more, maybe twice. Here is the list all time for 20, 10 and over 50% http://bkref.com/tiny/oC2vI

Edit - the season in between those two KJ seasons he had 21.5, 10.9, and a .499 shooting percentage, so he missed being the only guy EVER to do that three times by .001 or .1%

Also Since 1980, there have been 7 players to average at least 19 points and 6 assists per game while shooting 49% from the field and 36% from deep.
Here's the list:
Michael Jordan (89-90)
LeBron James (11-12,12-13,13-14)
Chris Paul (08-09)
Dana Barros (94-95)
Kevin Johnson (96-97)
Larry Bird (84-85, 85-86, 86-87, 87-88)
Goran Dragic (13-14)

One TV analyst over the weekend compared him to a combination of Nash and Parker, which is actually quite accurate if you think about it. More athletic than Nash, and a better all around shooter than Parker. Crafty as hell like both.
