The Top 7 Lethal Passers in D1 Men’s Basketball

Behind every great scorer stands an even better passer. Then again, an assist would never count if the shooter didn’t actually make the basket, so who needs who more? #mindblown.

I digress. Let’s say we get to the meat and potatoes — the Top Assisters of D1 Men’s College Basketball. And yes, I believe “assisters” is a word because my Word program isn’t correcting me.

Numero uno. Felder, a 5-foot-9 junior guard, averages just over 8.7 assists per game. He leads the country in that particular category, and ranks number one in total assists with a whopping 157 over 18 games. None too shabby.

Jordan Johnson — Milwaukee

Number two on the list goes to the 5-foot-9 Johnson thanks to his 8.0 assists per game. The thrifty junior has amassed 152 total assists in 19 games played. Magic Johnson would be proud.

Durham has just 125 total assists to his name — which, if anything says a lot about Felder and Johnson’s numbers — but he ranks third overall in assists per game with 7.4 after 17 games.

Rounding out the Top Four is Ohio’s Jaaron Simmons, a 6-foot-1 sophomore currently averaging 7.3 assists per game.

McIntosh, a 6-foot-3 sophomore from Northwestern, comes in at number five with 7.3 assists per game. He actually boasts 138 total assists through 19 games, which ranks third overall.

Kyle Collinsworth — BYU

Collinsworth is the only senior outside of Johnson to make this list … No, I’m not implying anything. Just pointing out a little factoid you can use if you happen to be playing, “Absurd Trivia” while waiting for your food at Chilis. Oh yeah, Collinsworth, a 6-foot-6 guard by the way, averages 7.2 assists per game. He also has 136 total assists under his belt through 19 games.

Monte Morris — Iowa St.

The 6-foot-2 Morris has 121 total assists thus far, and averages 7.1 per game. Good enough for the final position on the list.
