Aaron Jamal Crawford (born March 20, 1980) is an American professional basketball player who played last for the Phoenix Suns of the National Basketball Association (NBA).
He led Rainier Beach High School to a state title before moving on to play college basketball for the Michigan Wolverines.
His NBA debut in 2000 was for the Chicago Bulls, who had acquired him from the Cavaliers on draft day.
He would later suit up for the Knicks and Warriors, Hawks and Blazers, Clippers and Timberwolves.
Having earned NBA Sixth Man of the Year in 2010, in 2014, and again in 2016, Crawford is the first ever three-time winner of the award.
Jamal Crawford remains the NBA all-time leader in four-point plays, with 55 or 60 counting in the playoffs.
As recently as April 9, 2019, Crawford (39 years, 20 days) became the oldest player to score 50+ points in a game, as well as the first player to ever do so with four different franchises.
Further, the 51-point tally reached the most points ever scored by a player not in the starting lineup.
In all NBA history, he ranks 27th in 50-point games accrued (between George Mikan and Larry Bird) and 7th in career three-point field goals made (2,220).
Also, Crawford is only the second player in NBA history to have scored 10,000+ career points off the bench.
