Xavier Cooks is playing as well as he ever has for the Sydney Kings and stats are backing it up.
After Friday night's 22 points, 11 rebounds, six dimes, three blocks, and two steals performance against Perth by King #217 Cooks, he has now led the Hoops Capital side in points, rebounds, and assists in back-to-back games.
The last time that happened was in 2014 by Josh Childress, who led the team in points, rebounds, and assists in five straight games.

Chris Williams did it in two straight games in 2003, and Melvin Thomas in two straight games in 1996.
Adding to that, Cooks - who is now averaging 18.6 points, 9.3 rebounds and 4.1 dimes per game - also moved past 300 career NBL assists on Friday - now sitting on 304.
Cooks and his harbour city side next play New Zealand on Sunday, October 13 at Qudos Bank Arena - tipping off from 2.15pm.
Tickets to the round six clash are still available here.
