They call him the Caitlin Clark of the NBA
It is crazy that his scoring and shooting have improved in the three games off the bench, he is average 25.ppg on 52.7/37.5/88.9 shooting over the last three games. That is up from 16.8ppg on 45.6/35.2/80 shooting. That also with increased minutes per game and higer usage as well.
Reducing his minutes with either or both of Brown & White has just put the ball in his hands more often and he has taken full advantage of it. Only four players in history (Lou Williams twice) have averaged 20ppg+ off the bench in a season. Hard to see him not doing that for the 29 games left in the season.
