Purdue has been home to some of the best passers in college basketball. To make the program's top-10 list is quite an impressive accomplishment.

The most recent addition to the top-five is current Purdue guard Braden Smith, who is approaching 500 assists in the middle of his third season in West Lafayette. There's a good chance he will challenge Bruce Parkinson, the program's all-time leader, for the assist record by the time his career concludes.

We'll continue to track Smith's assist total throughout his career, as well as any other Boilermakers that could join the list. Below is the complete list of Purdue's top-10 all-time assist leaders.
