  1. Everyone’s gonna just think i’m a hater but people think this is a leap? He’s always had streaks like this. He’s one of the most streaky players in the NBA. I’m fully expecting him to have a month he scores like 23 on 51%TS and his numbers even out

  2. The thing about this is that usually Spida starts the season very rough, so this is surprising that he is having this stretch at the start of the season.

  3. He was out of shape last year and even he admits he had a bad year. I think there are a few Jazz fans who expected him to play better.

  4. Man he fits so well on this squad.. And this is w/ DG being gone half the games, it’ll only get better

  5. He’s gonna average 39 ppg after he drops 100 on the clippers tmrw with Reggie and Powell guarding him

  6. Bad stat. He’s def had stretches of games longer than this season where he’s averaged higher than that.

  7. I’m happy he is playing well, I’m not happy to hear the Booker VS Mitchell arguments again.

  8. jamal murray and donovan mitchell are secretly two of the best players in the nba and if you don’t believe me go watch the greatest head to head duel in the history of the nba in the bubble playoffs

  9. Can we wait for at least half the season before making these bold statements about players? There’s seven players averaging 30ppg+ right now, Embiid was the only one to finish last season at 30+. There’s going to be a good amount of regression by the time the season ends.

  10. I mean he looks awesome so far but you’re comparing like less than 10 games to an entire season lmao. Everyone in the league likely has a ten game stretch with numbers better than their best season numbers.

  11. Let’s see if he’s still maintaining it in January. Good for him that he appears to be excelling in his new surroundings though.

  12. Let’s note that the 26.4 ppg game in 33.4mpg (2020-21), while this 31.4 is coming in 39.7mpg, essentially the same per minute averages.

    Credit for the increase in efficiency though, especially with an increased workload of minutes. Let’s see if he can maintain it long-term, or whether it’s just a hot streak.
