The only longer streaks in NBA history with 24 points, 4.5 boards and 5.5 assists are by James (18 straight from 2005 through this year) and Robertson (10 straight from 1961-70 - his first 10 NBA seasons).

Robertson had four 11-assist seasons and six 30-point seasons and Tiny Archibald and Russell Westbrook have had one of each. Not a tiny accomplishment: Harden is also one of only four players with at least one career season with 11 assists and one season with 30 points. Robertson averaged 30.3 and 10.6 from 1961 through 1968. Harden was at 30.4 and 8.5 from 2015 through 2021.
