Thanks for the thread WHO...
BTW, I agree Fournier is a far better scorer and, at this time, is playing far better than Richardson.
Just thought I'd add the stats from Nesmith's last 12 regular season games as Nesmith is the "winger who is still on the team." He is a raw rookie who got few minutes from Stevens, but, I suggest his arc should outdo Fournier's over the next couple of years....we'll see.
These stats aren't much, but, Jaylen Brown wasn't much his rookie year either
Nesmith
Games last 12 of the season assorted crummy games(215 minutes)
MPG 19.25
FG 52.1%
PPG 8.6
3PT 44% (15 for 34)
FT 11 for 12
RPG 4.25
TO 5 in 12 games
AST 10
Brown's first year (obviously, he played a lot more-below entire season)
Games 78 (1341 minutes)
MPG 17.25
FG 45.4%
PPG 6.6
3PT 34% (46 for 135)
FT 68.5% (85 for 124)
RPG 2.8
TO .9 (total of 68)
AST .8 (total of 64)
Brown was rough early and got better as did Nesmith.
My point with this pile o'stats is perhaps, Celtics think they've got the winger Fournier might have been at $3.6M.
I said "maybe in a couple of years."
