Sheesh, what a move by Paolo Banchero He balances incredible strength packed into a 6’10” frame with the finesse and handle of a point guard I think people don’t fully understand how special of a player he is, but he’ll remind everyone soon now that he’s healthy again 👀

Did you know that, at just 21 years old, Shaedon Sharpe is already an 80th percentile scorer in isolation? He’s clearly on a star trajectory and has the potential to be the best player on the Blazers in a couple years

Ausar Thompson is ONLY playing 20.2 mpg across 5 games in January, as Detroit continues to carefully ramp him back up But in those 20.2 mins, he makes a huge impact, especially on defense He’s averaging an insane 3.2 steals per game this month 👀

Over the last 3 weeks, Bub Carrington averages 10.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, 4.5 assists on 49% FG and 40% 3PT He has a 4.5 AST/TO ratio, as a 19-year old rook He plays with a ton of poise and gets to his spots well when he’s aggressive The kid is special

You can see so many different shades of greatness in Cooper Flagg’s game From Jayson Tatum to Kevin Garnett, he embodies a ton of archetypes that are conducive to winning Clearly the top prospect in this draft

After a breakout year 3, Jalen Suggs continues to improve for the Magic, with him tapping back into his playmaking with Banchero out He’s averaging the most assists since his (4.0) and the most FTAs (2.9) since his rookie year Love to see the passing & aggression resurfacing

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

Tough loss aside, am I tripping or is Giannis not receiving enough praise and attention for the season he’s having? He’s averaging a 32.6 points (career-high), 11.6 rebounds, and 6.6 assists (career-high) on a career-best 62.6% FG shooting and playing like a top-3 MVP candidate

PS: 17.9 points per game in 23.3 mpg = 27.7 points per 36 minutes 😮‍💨 This dude is a CERTIFIED bucket, don’t get it twisted

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

Don’t let the way the Spurs are handling him (playing him off the bench and in limited minutes) affect how you view Devin Vassell In fact, they’re being careful with him BECAUSE of how important he is to the franchise He’s a pure bucket getter, who gets 17.9 ppg in only 23 mpg

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

Tyler Herro averages career-highs in points (23.7) and assists (4.9), all while being the most efficient he’s ever been on FGs (46.1% on 17.6 FGA) and from 3 (40.7% on 9.9 3PA) He looks like the guy in Miami, showcasing that last year’s hot start was a sneak peak not a fluke

Trentyn Flowers was my highest ranked player (#26) to go undrafted I really liked his combination of size, speed, athleticism, and scoring He’s putting it together at the G-league level for the Clippers, where he’s averaging 15.1 ppg on 48% FG (10.1 FGA) & 47% 3P (2.4 3PA) Watch him closely 👀

On the surface level, Tidjane Salaun’s stats jump out, but he seems to be trending upwards, especially lately In his last 3 GP, the rook averages: - 15.0 mpg - 8.0 ppg (19.2 per 36) - 1.3 3pm (3.1 per 36) - 4.0 rpg (9.6 per 36) - 0.7 bpg (1.7 per 36) Someone to watch with Grant hurt now 👀

With Suggs, unfortunately, set to miss some time, it’s time again to highlight Anthony Black Over his last 10 GP, AB averages 10.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 1.3 steals, and 0.7 block He’s one of the leagues best defensive guards and is now Orlando’s secondary playmaker

In the 6 games this year where he’s played 20+ minutes, Moussa Diabate averages: - 4.8 points - 13.7 rebounds - 1.2 assists - 1.3 steals - 1.7 blocks He’s relentless with a knack for swallowing up offensive rebounds to create extra possessions Arrow ↗️

Tonight’s 30-point performance marks SEVEN straight games with 20+ points for Jared McCain The rookie is averaging 26.6 points and 4.5 assists over this span He’s the Sixers’ most consistent option, and that’s huge for a team looking to establish an identity and build momentum

031

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

Since Paolo got injured, Jalen Suggs averages 14.9 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 3.7 apg, 1.2 spg, and 1.3 bpg, all while playing ALL-NBA level defense Actually, despite being a G, his BLK% is 3.7, similar to Giannis and Jarrett Allen, and STL% is top-15 in the league He’s building off of a big year 3 leap 👀

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 22/11/2024

Game after game, you can see Isaiah Collier learning how to utilize his rim pressure to set up his teammates for easy looks at the perimeter He’s averaging 6 APG over his last two games, and he’s on track to pass that with 5 assists in the 1st half today

Moussa Diabate CONSISTENTLY makes winning plays when he’s on the court, from taking charges to earning extra possession on the offensive glass Even with Williams & Richards en route to return, Diabate has made his case to be a meaningful part of this rotation going forward

Over his last 9 games, Cade Cunningham has: 4 Triple-Doubles 3 Double-Doubles In the 2 games with neither, he had: 21-7-9 26-8-9 He’s averaging 22.3 points, 8.4 rebounds; and 10.3 assists over this span 🤯 Is he getting his first all-star nod?

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

And here’s an example how the threat of his playmaking opens up the floor for his scoring too His ball fakes have to be respected, and he’s been making a meaningful effort to attack more and get downhill, which helps him get to the line more too

020

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

I’ve talked about how Anthony Black’s confidence as a playmaker has risen, especially recently (5.3 APG over his last 3 GP) He’s been trusted to initiate the offense more and that’s when he’s at his best Don’t forget that he’s one of the best guard defenders in the league too

020

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Psychotic defensive motor and great screen navigation from Toumani Camara, who is really establishing himself as a defensive weapon on Portland He was a “throw-in” in the Nurkic trade, and now he’s averaging 1.7 steals in 31.4 mpg What a rise and a testament to his work ethic

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Jared McCain has earned so much trust as a ballhandler and playmaker for the Sixers In fact, the coaching staff believe in him so much that he’s facilitating an offense supported by a complete bench lineup, and doing a great job keeping them afloat

010

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Nvm, Jared McCain has 10 points in the first quarter I guess he’s going to keep scoring 20 + points 😮‍💨

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Agreed. He’s established how important he is and they should continue to lean on that

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Tari Eason is 2nd in the league in steal %, just behind Dyson Daniels, and 10th in the league in block % He’s the ONLY player in the league in the top-10 in BOTH categories In just 23.1 mpg, he racks up 1.9 spg and 1.2 bpg No wonder he’s untouchable 👀

050

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 21/11/2024

Is Jared McCain going to continue scoring 20+ a game with Maxey back? Probably not… BUT, he’s shown enough as a ballhandler, off-ball mover, shot-creator, and playmaker that he’s entrenched himself as a prominent part of the Sixer rotation

Over his last 5 games, De’Aaron Fox is shooting 56/56/80 and averaging: 38.0 ppg (24.8 FGA) 3.0 3pm (5.4 3PA) 4.6 rpg 7.2 apg 1.8 spg 0.4 bpg Is Swipa a lock for all-star and all-nba recognition?

Dalton Knecht’s first 10 games: 61 points (6.1 ppg) Dalton Knecht’s last 4 games: 97 points (24.3 ppg) Knecht 4 started slow, but shooters shoot and he hasn’t been shy at all about getting buckets lately, especially after today’s 37-point performance

“bUt hE’s nOT a PoInT gUaRd” Say’s who? Stephon Castle averages 4.7 assists per game over his 6 games and is growing as a playmaker on a game-by-game basis He has great vision, a tight handle, and great decision making, especially for a rookie He has SEVEN assists in the half versus OKC

040

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Anthony Black has grown in so many ways He’s emerged as one of the league’s best perimeter defenders and is regaining his confidence as a playmaker (improved his APG from 1.3 to 4.3) And he’s beginning to show off his self-creation traits too 🤯

051

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

Tre Mann continues to showcase the self-creation traits that make him special Fun fact: only 19.5% of his 2PT FGs are assisted, meaning that he creates his own shots at the rim or in the mid range 80.5% of the time 🤯

With Edey out week-to-week, Jay Huff should not just be on your radar but he should be on your roster The 3nD center averages 9.4 points, 1.7 blocks, and 1.7 3PM in JUST 14.5 MPG That translates to 23.4 points, 4.3 blocks, and 4.3 3PM per 36 minutes 🤯

Highlighted Oso Ighodaro earlier today prior to his first career start, in which he delivered a very well rounded game He led the bigs with 32 minutes, finishing with 12 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals Don’t sleep on the Suns’ rookie big man

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

I really think Bennedict Mathurin hasn’t gotten enough praise for how good he’s been recently Over his last ten games, the high-scoring guard is shooting a blistering 53/49/85 and averages: 22.5 points 2.0 3PM 8.2 rebounds 2.0 assists He’s coming up 📈

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Anthony Black showing off some wizardry with his pick and roll navigation and ballhandling in on this play People forget that he was touted as one of the best playmakers in his draft class, and he’s really tapped back into his bread and butter this year

150

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

He’s flying under the radar, but Oso Ighodaro is worth a look with Nurkic out The rook played 22.3 mpg over his last 4 He’s a high-energy big with a ton of feel as a passer and off-ball cutter The Suns could turn to him if they want to play with pace

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Really, really love seeing Bilal getting more comfortable with his middies Last year, he shot 13% from 10-16 feet and 25% from 16 feet-3PT line This year, those numbers are up to 33% and 38% respectively He’s been assisted on less of his FGs, too This jump in production is the real deal 👀

011

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Bilal Coulibaly’s dunk will get the attention But Alex Sarr’s pass deserves a ton of credit Sarr consistently makes good reads and accurate passes on a game to game basis and his passing is an underrated part of his game

021

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Bilal Coulibaly’s usage has dipped with Kuz back but at least his efficiency has stayed steady He’s hitting 56% of his FGs over his last 6 games, and his defensive upside is surfacing once again with 1.5 steals and 1.2 blocks over that span Legit stud 📈

031

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Who’s leading the league in blocks per 100 possessions? Victor Wembenyama would be everyone’s first guess, but he’s actually 2nd with 5.7 blocks per 100 possession 1st place belongs to Donovan Clingan Cling Kong averages a wild 6.3 blocks per 100 🤯

The closer was back at it today, Shaedon Sharpe scored Portland's last 11 points including an end of shot clock BOMB for the lead Back to back 30+ point games closing out tight wins Will be interesting to see what happens to this team when Ant and DA return

Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball.bsky.social · 18/11/2024

Shaedon Sharpe dominated the 3rd leading Portland to a 38-17 quarter The 13 points were classic Shaedon but the 5 assists in the quarter were beautiful to see Shaedon has playmaking upside, don't listen to the noise that he's JUST a scorer
