Aaron Jamal Crawford (born March 20, 1980) is an American former professional basketball player who played in the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 2000 to 2020. Nicknamed "J-Crossover", he is regarded as one of the best ball handlers in NBA history.[1] Crawford was named NBA Sixth Man of the Year three times, a record he shares with Lou Williams.[2]

Among other distinctions, Crawford was once the NBA’s all-time leader in career four-point plays.[3] On April 9, 2019, he became not only the oldest player to score 50+ points in an NBA game, but also the first player to have 50-point outings with four franchises.[4] The 51-point tally also reached the most points ever scored by a reserve.[4] In NBA history, Crawford ranks 21st with four 50+ point games accrued (tied with 9 others, including George Mikan and Larry Bird)[5] and 10th all-time in career three-point field goals made (2,221).[6] Crawford is the second player in NBA history to have scored 10,000+ career points off the bench.[7] In 2021, he began providing commentary on NBA League Pass.[8]
