Updated Keon Ellis leads the Kings in net rating chart

His net rating is over TEN.

Of players +10 gms/20 MPG, at #22 in NETRTG he’s the only one in the top-50 from an under .500 team

Over 500 mins played and 7th on the team, one would think this would become the main story in Sac at some point

PGs ranked lower than Scoot by advanced stats:

CPM (Scoot -4.2):
- Nobody, but near: Keyonte (-4.0), Shead (-3.9)

DARKO (Scoot -2.9):
- Keyonte (-4.7)
- Shead (-3.2)
- Bub (-3.0)
- Castle (-2.9, tie)

EPM (Scoot -4.8):
- Collier (-4.9)

Rough company.

Among those in the rotation in Sacramento:

Net rating: #1
Defensive rating: #1
3P%: #1
+/- per 36: #1
TS%: #2
Steals and Blocks per 36: #2
The Spurs scored 30 points in less than 9 minutes to start this game. Then Keon Ellis checked in.

Kings held the Spurs to just 3 points the remainder of the quarter and go on a 14-3 run.

Keon was a +32 tonight with 4 steals.

One of the more underrated things happening with the Grizzlies is their ability to play Jaylen Wells in the starting lineup and have him capably defend number one options. It A) adds shooting to a space-deprived unit, and B) lets Marcus Smart come off the bench in a much more effective role

Netflix's "The Madness" is a total miss—basically a sloppy, half-baked attempt at copying Luther. Save yourself the frustration.

Dyson currently at a STL% of 4.7.

Since 00-01, only 3 players topped 4.5 (min 41 gm) in shotclock era only the players below did it.

No one ever posted a STL% of 4 + BLK% of 3.
Dyson is currently at 4.7 & 3.2.

Last year's 3.1 & 1.8 were only done 17x before by a Guard.

Eason's USG% has remained consistent: 19-20%. MPG justslightly upward, going from 21.5, to 21.8 and now 23.1.
STL% has seen growth, BLK% also improved significantly.
I believed his STL were result of him gambling, and feared those may get reeled in. The opposite has been true:

Blocks and steals have been dancing around the same ratio forever — around 0.64 blocks per steal. But as you suggested the real story can be found in the standard deviation. A decade ago, blocks were way more of a rarity, making them a hot commodity, but now that gap’s shrinking.
November 19, 2024 at 11:39 AM
The average steals per game for the top 180 players in 9 cat roto is 1.0 spg, and for blocks, that numbers sits at 0.7 bpg.
Players who are currently (!) above average in both steals and blocks per game (player name spg bpg):

In fantasy hoops, stocks (steals + blocks) are game-changers. Players like Wembanyama & Adebayo bring huge value with high defensive impact.

McCain and Wells are well on their way to join a select group of rookies in history to put up at least 11.5 ppg, 43% FG and 1.7 threes per game.

Both have significantly improved stats since starting, too:
McCain: 31.5, 51%FG, 5.5 threes (🫣)
Wells: 14.8 ppg, 48%FG, 1.9 threes

If Moussa Diabaté grabs 11+ rebounds in under 30 minutes off the bench tonight, he'll join an exclusive club of just three players to ever do that 5 games in a row: Tom Boerwinkle (1971), Clifford Ray (1972), and Hassan Whiteside (2016).
