John Wall stands alone.

Wall passed Wes Unseld on Monday to become the all-time leader in assists for the Washington Wizards/Bullets franchise.

Unseld held the previous record at 3,822, which mostly speaks to Unseld's sheer longevity with the franchise and Washington's lackluster track record with point guards.

The Hall of Famer was a wonderful passer for a frontcourt player - most famously with his outlet passes - but he only averaged 3.9 assists per game, compared to Wall's career average of nine per game.

Wall needed four assists to move into first and did so by picking up a helper off Bradley Beal's dunk in the third quarter of Monday's game against the Houston Rockets.
