Chuma per 36 in Indiana:
22.3 pts, 9.4 reb, 2.3 stocks, 1.2 TO, 48% FG, 1.14 PISTOL
started 18/21 games at SG
if anyone's got guys like that for 9.7m/year please send them to indiana

Say what you want about Herro but he's not a minus rebounder; he's actually a plus rebounder at SG

How different are Kris Dunn and Ja Morant?
Same stock differential per 36
Same rebounding per 36
Same FG%
Morant 20.7 FGA/36 vs Dunn 19.3 FGA/36
Dunn B+ def vs Morant B def

Love all of this - somehow nobody clapped back the last time I wrote this article. Boring!

Good point on Chuma although I would like to see him do it for a larger sample than 21 games. If he does (maybe next season?) I will stand very much corrected!

Herro is a C- rebounder which I think most would consider below average for a wing - I think his per-36 reb numbers are a litttttle inflated because he plays a good bit of SF as a backup

Ja was on shortlist! Maybe he's honorable mention; I still think I'd rather have him than Dunn by a good bit. While I did say this article was just about this year's production, context matters too - Ja's scoring ratings are considerably better, Dunn has historically had a lot less volume even at PG, the Grizz are actively tanking and have exactly 1 other guy scraping 20 a game so Dunn's scoring numbers are juiced

I wonder how much Josh would have to add to turn Kris Dunn into Kris Dunn

Probably a lot of Celtics picks

Lonnie Walker's minutes this year have come with the Kings, who have one guy at 20.8ppg (not counting the Mitten since he was a late addition) and the Celtics, who have two 20ppg guys and are 19th in scoring.

Perhaps his numbers are also juiced?

If we go with players averaging 28 ppg and 2.1 TOs or less, the updated list is still 7 guys - all the same except Turner falls off bc his scoring dropped to 27 and he's replaced by Brunson, who is also on a max. Logic still holds!

Also I was able to do that check because of @bpankin's live league-wide stats sheet...super useful tool for stuff like this

it’s actually 8 when you include TyFreke !!

Nah just checked and they're not

one good contract wipes out two bad contracts right?

a lot

also how can Pascal Siakam, the man named after the currency of Siakams, be more than the limit of 5 Siakams? He is Siakam! he should be capped at 5 Siakams. the Board of Siakam needs a word with joe

potential included MPJ has gotta be up there

also no bam on this issue, big fan
