He is currently averaging 20/6/2 with 1.3 blocks on 11 FGA per game with shooting splits of 56/40/83. Among players with more than 75 field goals attempted, which is currently the top 137 players in the NBA, he is currently leading the league with a 69% TS. Not to mention, both him and the Jays along with Jrue have great chemistry and they have been abusing smaller defenders on the post through mismatch or KP would find JB through a back door cut or when he is double teamed, he would find the right pass for a wide open 3. His passing has been impressive even tho he doesn’t generate a lot of assists.

Kristaps has been great but it’s so weird to me that a 7 footer who plays significant minutes averages less rebounds than some guards around the league.

Cause he often stands around the perimeter to space the floor. It’s positioning.

That is part of it but the Knicks big men tonight clearly hustled for boards more than Porzingis does. I'm fine with it because if Porzingis bangs too much down low he'll most likely get hurt. But he's not necessarily an elite rebounding talent, and I think the Celtics may struggle a little bit against dominant physical big men.
