Breakdown Anthony Davis

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 7th among C's. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 3rd with 2050 total points (50.00 avg).
  • He is currently 991 points behind the leader: Nikola Jokic
  • He is putting up slightly better numbers than the experts expected him to.
  • His average points in the past two weeks have increased by 11 PPG. That is great, but how long can he perform at this level? If you don't have the confidence he can keep it up, then trade him for a sure thing.
  • Performance Stats

  • Shooting 55.56% from the field this month. Very impressive for a big man.
  • Shooting 25.00% from beyond the arc this month. I'd love to play against him in a game of 'HORSE'.
  • Assists per game numbers are alright for a center but nothing to brag about at 1.44 apg.
  • Rebounds per game numbers are average for a center / power forward with 5.50 rpg this month.
  • Bonus Qualities

  • Played in 15 less games this year than last year.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: PPG: +2.58, APG: -0.23, RPG: +0.45, MPG: +0.88999999999999 STLS: +0.31 BLKS: --0.18
Breakdown Aaron Nesmith

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 56th among PF's. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 68th with 262 total points (14.56 avg).
  • He is currently 2099 points behind the leader: Giannis Antetokounmpo
  • He should be doing a bit better than this. Look for him to bounce back.
  • His average points in the past two weeks have remained fairly consistant and rose slightly by 0.8 PPG.
  • Performance Stats

  • Shooting 43.08% from the field this month. Not very good for a big man.
  • Shooting 30.56% from beyond the arc this month.
