I know IT was King in the Fourth last year...BUT Kyrie is killing it this year.

“Irving's 28 points in those situations this season are second only to Damian Lillard, and of the five players with the most "clutch" points this season, Irving has played by far the least amount of "clutch" minutes. He's done his work in just 18 "clutch" minutes, while everyone else in the top five has played at least 26 such minutes. In addition, he's shooting an efficient 52.4 percent in "clutch" situations.
Perhaps most impressive, though, is the fact that he's also tied (with John Wall) for the lead league in "clutch" assists with seven. Not only is he getting clutch baskets himself, but he's setting up his teammates to get them as well.“

Yeah, so is being tied with John Wall for most assists in the clutch, that is actually the most impressive of these stats.
