You can use the same table multiple times by assigning alias to it.
SELECT i.ItemId,
uc.UserName AS [Creator Name],
ua.UserName AS [Assignee Name]
FROM Item i
JOIN User uc ON uc.UserId = i.CreatorId
JOIN User ua ON ua.UserId = i.AssigneeId

>I've got an Item table with 3 fields (again to make it simple): ItemId, CreatorId and AssigneeId.
