What's going on with Ivey? I know he's still early in his 2nd year, but he looks like the exact same player as game 1 in his rookie year. I've seen zero improvement from this guy. Low shooting percentages, low assists, high turnovers, negative defender.

Even Jabari Smith Jr who started just as bad if not worse than Ivey has shown improvement in his game. Keegan Murray even when his shots aren't falling has turned into a plus defender usually guarding the opponents best player. Sharpe has shown improvements, same with Dyson Daniels. I've seen nothing from Ivey that's wow'ed me for a top draft pick

He went from 6th percentile in at the rim finishing to 86th this year. Opponents are also shooting 37% when guarded by him. He also showed continual improvement every month especially throughout the 2nd half of his rookie year
