LeBron ties career high with 17 assists vs. Hawks

LeBron James was in a giving mood against the Atlanta Hawks.

The Cleveland Cavaliers icon tied his career high of 17 assists in Tuesday's 123-114 win over Atlanta, including this beauty:

With his friend Dwyane Wade sidelined, James was tasked with play-making responsibilities for both the first and second units and did a tremendous job facilitating the offense. The Cavaliers collected a season-high 35 assists on 48 made field goals in the contest en route to their 15th win in 16 games.

The four-time MVP led his team with 25 points on 11-of-13 shooting, seven rebounds, two steals, and 17 dimes to just two turnovers in 35 minutes. James, who finished a game-high plus-19, previously notched 17 helpers on Feb. 6 against the Washington Wizards.

At 32 years old and in his 15th season, the veteran doesn't appear to be slowing down. In fact, he's averaging a career high in assist percentage, accounting for 43.8 percent of his teammate's field goals while he's on the floor.
