Wemby has been a monster in the 4th quarters so far this season, the difference in efficiency between his play in the first 3 quarters and the clutch is astonishing

It’s been a consistent pattern so far. Like every single game. He starts passive and slow offensively then turns it on for the 4th. I can only attribute it to nerves. However he’s been consistently good on the defensive end.

I don't think it's nerves. I think it's unselfishness to a fault. He clearly isn't demanding the ball or jacking shots. He's playing away from the basket, trying to get guys involved, and isn't being fed as a focal point.

He seems bought into the team concept and just doesn't know how to affect things on offense without the ball yet.

In the 4th quarter, he takes it more into his own hands.

He will level up soon when he realizes he should be 20% more selfish.

Definately doesn’t help that his team seems to largely ignore him, and seemingly just want to “cook” themselves
