He’s also 16th in FG%, 24th in 3P%, 13th in 2P%, 22nd in FT%, 15th in PER, and 15th in VORP.

As a rookie.

I though he was gonna be good but I didn’t think he was going to play like one of the best players in the league his rookie season. He’s been absolutely ridiculous on both ends, he doesn’t force anything and he plays with the IQ and maturity of a player that’s been in the league for 5+ years. What’s crazy is he keeps on getting better every game, the last 5 games for example he’s averaging 23/9 with 2.6 blocks on 73.5%(!!!) TS. Just insane stuff.

The only reason I expect it to go down a little is because he is shooting worse on wide open 3s (41%) than on open 3s(defender within 6 feet, over 55% on low volume). But I still think he floats close to 40% maybe like 38-39%

He'll start getting defended way more tightly on 3's. Feel like he's gotten a lot of open looks from opposition bigs so far.
