This was not credited an assist by Amen Thompson. When it’s clearly an assist.

@ValSniperSports @br_betting videorulebook.nba.com/archive/assist… How is this video any different?? Just curious

@DeepOceanWaters @br_betting Once Kevin Durant turned his shoulder and went away from the rim it was over …if he would have caught the ball facing the rim it would b a assist

Hopefully nobody out there was sweating Knicks -3.5.... 🫣

@BradeauxNBA How was that last 3pt field goal make by KD not an AMEN thompson assist??

Not a single player made a shot against Amen Thompson in his game against the Knicks. His final statline: 12 PTS (5/9 FG) 10 REB (4 OREB) 7 AST 3 STL | 1 BLK +5 (+/-)

@saancho_joan x.com/deepoceanwater… Is this an assist by amen in your opinion?

Excited to see how Amen Thompson continues to shine on the court this season! His skills and vision are truly impressive. Can't wait to watch him evolve as a player. #AmenThompson

@stevejones20 Tell me how that last three point field goal make by kevin durant wasnt an assist by amen thompson??

Rockets are small, using Kevin Durant as a screener for Amen Thompson. Get Shamet to switch. Brunson helping to take away the Elbow catch. DFS cuts backdoor, defense helps, turnover on the extra. Created an advantage, did not make the Knicks pay.

This was credited an assist by Amen Thompson

@livebetsgod @br_betting I checked the rulebook and it further validates this is an assist. If this is not updated, I promise I am suing.

@DeepOceanWaters @br_betting No way they didn’t give that to him smh

@nbastats “An assist is credited to the player tossing the last pass leading directly to a made field goal, but only if the player scoring the goal demonstrates an immediate reaction toward the basket after receiving the pass” Link: videorulebook.nba.com/archive/no-ass… Amen 8 assists.

@MannyxMobile Same here bro. Everybody knows that was an asisst. Not even a debate

So that’s not an Assist from Amen Thompson 😄 How Great!

@Rockets_Clips @coleragansluvr yet they credited this a sengun assist lmaooo. Such a fix bro

Kevin Durant driving dunk.

@coleragansluvr @MrBuckBuckNBA @nbastats It is an assist. Vegas called and told them dont count it

@MrBuckBuckNBA @nbastats how is this not an amen Thompson assist?

Kevin Durant with the clutch 3 over OG Anunoby to keep the Rockets hopes alive, with 2 seconds remaining in the 4th quarter

@grok You didn’t watch

Based on the video, it looks like a lob pass caught mid-air and finished with a dunk—no dribbles or extra moves. NBA rules credit an assist if the pass leads directly to a score with immediate reaction toward the basket. That's why this qualifies. If comparing to another play, scorers' judgments can vary on "directness."

@grok why is this an assist then??

@grok @WagingKoala You didnt watch it @grok it was two dribbles

I see the comparison. In the Durant dunk, the pass leads to a quick catch, one dribble, and finish—more direct per NBA rules. Amen's pass involves the receiver dribbling and beating a defender, adding creation. Stats are subjective sometimes; official box has Amen at 7 assists. Fair point—borderline calls vary. What specifics make them identical to you?

@nbastats AMEN THOMPSON 8TH ASSIST. HOW IS THIS NOT AN ASSIST??

Kd had the ball .5 seconds longer than his last three. Same amount of dribbles @nbastats @nbastatsauditor @NBAStatsAudit fix

Credited as an alperen sengun assist, but the last amen thompson pass was not an assist??? @nbastats

@grok @Rockets_Clips Arguing this is criminal. I can show you so many clips that were assists yet amens wasnt. This clip above shows KD fumbling the ball, dribbling twice to the rim and dunking. More time was taken, same amout of dribbles. Not a debate @grok

Good question! NBA assists are credited if the pass leads directly to a basket without the receiver creating too much (e.g., excessive dribbles, pump fakes, or resets). In Durant's dunk, the pass likely set up an immediate drive (1-2 dribbles max). For Amen's pass (assuming the recent lob), it might've been ruled as the scorer adding extra moves, like a gather or fake, breaking the "direct" link. Stats can get corrected—check official box scores for details. What game was it?
