  1. insane statline and didn’t even look that good this game, gassed by the end. Think he’s still playing into shape

  2. The fact that it seems 28-30 points is his floor now is crazy. last year on these off nights he’d have 18 pts but now he has so many go to moves and easy buckets he’s gonna get close to 30 no matter what lol

  3. His shot selection was bad he should’ve got to the rim more but 31 14 and 6 is always good

  4. We got to see him having to deal with doubles from the 1st quarter non stop, next step for him and the team is learning how to deal with those

  5. He’s gonna get a 5×5 at some point. Unreal player.

    Edit: he has two already because of course he does

  6. Great statline but he definitely did not have a good game here. Quite a few bad and rushed shots. Definitely did not look as sharp as he did against the Mavs. He’s going to need to figure out how to play against double/triple teams when his team is cold. Having Fox back will help with that, but I’m not sure what the move is here when he gets locked down like this. I guess that’s why they pay Mitch Johnson the big bucks.

  7. Still think it’s funny mavs fans tried to convince themselves they lost because of Wemby and he shot much worse against Pelicans and Nets lol.

  8. You can tell he was getting a bit tired cuz Mitch couldn’t play Biyombo. Hopefully Kornet comes back tomorrow

  9. If this an off night, he can play like shit the rest of the season.

    Box score aside, I do wish he had been a bit more aggressive, but I do love that he is unafraid to shoot deep if the opportunity presents itself. Just needs to clean up free throws too.

  10. Honestly terrifying that his poor shooting night is higher than most players’ ceilings. He also impacts every single part of the game even when his shots aren’t falling.

  11. It should be know how much better the team around him is playing too. Devin and Keldon are playing there roll so well. Dylan is a stud and contender for ROY. Castle has been great. Everyone around him is playing the roll they need to. I think these really help Wembys off nights.
