He hasn’t look good since they drafted him..just a handful of games he played good, definitely not a starter
He was a +22 last night.
And he has looked good in quite a few games last year. One thing he is is able to rim protect to such a level that his production is less important. I think he will be fine, new system, new players around him. I don't even think we are looking for him yet.
I agree. He impacted the game without even any fg attempts.
Did a good job guarding out on the floor, including demonstrating that rare skill of his, blocking a jumpshooter. Five rebounds in 20 minutes is good production, but he was an outstanding rebounder on both boards in 900-plus minutes last season.
Raw plus/minus isn’t close to being a definitive stat (Because it doesn’t control for who else is on the floor), but if you’re leading the team in that stat, as he did last night, you’re doing a lot of good things.
