A fast, gritty, durable player who could read a basketball floor as well as anyone who ever played the game, John Stockton left the NBA after nineteen seasons with the Utah Jazz, holding a massive assist record, including the career mark (15,806). He also twice led the league in steals with a career total of 3,265 and retired as the NBA s all-time leader. And during Stockton s career, the Jazz never missed the playoffs. Coach Frank Layden said, Nobody thought that he was going to be this good. Nobody. But the thing was, nobody measured his heart.
