Since November 15th, LaMelo Ball is averaging 35.3/6.8/8.8/1.3/0.3 on 60.8% TS despite only averaging 4.5 FTA per game. He has finished with at least 34/5/5 in each game, that is the longest streak of 34+ point games by any player at any point so far this season.

The Hornets are 2-2 during this stretch. They have faced the Bucks, Knicks, Celtics and Wizards.

With the way LaMelo is playing right now he is definetly looking like he will make his second All-Star appearance. He also has the second longest active streak of 25+ point games in a row with 9. He is only second to Kevin Durant who currently has 14.

I just picked a random month last season for Siakam, and picked a 4 game stretch where he did well. The 4 games from dec 3-9 he averaged 29/9/8/1.5stls/1.5 TO's on 60% TS and a +50 box score.

It's not even remotely hard to make a player look good if you cherry-pick stats

32/7/9 in 9 games well?

Beginning of 2022-23, 26/10/8

Mid-end Dec of 2022-23, 32/8/6

I'm barely trying and am easily finding comparable stat lines for an okay player. Is this really the hill you want to die on lol
