    Honestly, his all around game has really improved. Fchowd0311 was right about that. If he can become consistent offensively, watch out!

    Quite ironic that Sengun and green are the top two from the rockets. Probably because they are benched on bad days or if the opponents can take advantage of them, so they have more good days contributing.

    Green has been B+ on defense this year. As has Sengun.

    At the end of many games (if they are out there) they are generally with Brooks, FVV and Amen so yea.
