Breakdown Thaddeus Young

    Overview

  • Experts don't even rank him among PF's. Either he is injured or is just plain bad. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 44th with 544 total points (13.27 avg).
  • He is currently 1752 points behind the leader: Julius Randle
  • His average points in the past two weeks have remained fairly consistant and rose slightly by 0.7 PPG.

    • Performance Stats

  • Shooting 62.86% from the field this month. Very impressive for a big man.
  • Shooting 16.67% from beyond the arc this month. I'd love to play against him in a game of 'HORSE'.
  • Assists per game numbers are 0.69 apg this month.
  • Rebounds per game numbers are bad for a center / power forward at 1.56 rpg this month.

    • Bonus Qualities

Breakdown Talen Horton-Tucker

    Overview

  • Experts don't even rank him among SG's. Either he is injured or is just plain bad. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 50th with 538 total points (13.79 avg).
  • He is currently 1652 points behind the leader: Anthony Edwards
  • His average points in the past two weeks have increased by 3.7 PPG. If you don't have the confidence he can keep it up, then trade him for a sure thing.

    • Performance Stats

  • Shooting 48.94% from the field this month. Very impressive.
  • Shooting 36.84% from beyond the arc this month. Not horrible, but not too good either.

  • Rebounds per game are at 1.08 for the month.

    • Bonus Qualities

  • Played in 20 less games this year than last year.
