Now here are the best individual players off the bench.

Kinda depressing (for competitive balance) that OKC - with the best starters - also has the top three players off the bench.

(Minimum 8 Gs off bench. Or Coby White's 2 G would have led.)

NBA starter vs bench update
- Best bench is Houston
- Best starters at OKC
- Biggest diff between starters and bench is DEN, though there is competition
- Memphis, SAC, and CHI getting more from bench than starters by good amount.

One of my favorite quotes of the season:

“I’m telling you right now baby. Bulls nation. This is the real deal”

UT Rio Grande Valley is a well coached team

If someone asks who the worst offensive-rebounding team in the NBA is, a safe answer is: “whichever team Doc Rivers is coaching.”

Mihailo Petrovic -> Andrej Stojakovic -> Transition Dunk

I love a transition bounce pass.

If you like college basketball, cbbanalytics.com is a cool site. If you sign up, you can select your favorite team and get access to that team's page for free to see a plethora of stats and shot charts.

Andrej Stojakovic has been quite efficient inside the arc to start the season for Illinois. He's been relentless attacking the rim whether beating defenders off the dribble drive, or using his strength to create space.

He's 4-4 inside the arc tonight as well
