With his first career triple double on Nov. 16, Phoenix Suns guard Brandon Knight joined some rare company.

He contributed 30 points, 10 rebounds, and 15 assists in a 120-101 win over the Los Angeles Lakers, and is one of only four players to record a triple double with at least 30 points, 15 assists, 10 rebounds and four steals. The three others? Pete Maravich, Magic Johnson and Russell Westbrook. It was a great turnaround for Knight, who had just come off of a eight turnover game.

Knight’s game has developed well after stints with the Detroit Pistons and Milwaukee Bucks. Thanks to last night’s triple double, he’s averaging 20.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 5 assists.

Yet it’s one play that has everyone talking. With the Suns up by two in the second quarter, Knight unleashed a vicious crossover on Lakers guard Marcelo Huertas. Huertas was more than fooled; he staggered around in a circle, only for Knight to calmly collect himself and shoot an easy three.

It’s the latest embarrassment for the Lakers, who are only 2-9 on the season and have been worked by the Suns recently. Phoenix has won nine of the last ten against the Lakers. It’s also not the first time for the 32-year-old-rookie Huertas to make the lowlight reel; he had a hilarious no-look over the shoulder attempt at avoiding a shot-clock violation in a game against the Miami Heat a week ago.

And that was hammered home by Huertas, staggering around like an extra on The Walking Dead, as Knight steps back for an easy three.
