Eric May had 7 steals last night, single game record?

[DuffMan]

I just looked at the box score and Eric May was credited for 7 steals last night. That's got to be pretty close to a single game record right? Does anyone know what the record is?

Kenyon Murray, who was an announcer for the game, has the record with 9. Not sure if he shares it or not, but they talked about it on the game.

Acie Earl and Kenyon share the record at 9.

I thought I read that 7 steals was tied for fourth all-time???

May came out with 7:00 left on the clock too.

Kenyon Murray was commentating the game along with some other dude on the BTN. Murray mentioned he holds the single game steals record with 9 after May sat down for the night with 7 steals.
