Could DiVincenzo be next? Thibs is doing something right there
if you’re an nba player who doesn’t shy away from putting in work you will thrive with thibs

Jokic was great his rookie year, he just didn't play many minutes. By year 2 he was close to all-star level.
Jokic WAS All-Star level in his second year, but he came off the bench initially and played 28 mpg for the season, so it wasn't as noticed.
He had a 26 PER as a 21 year old sophomore and his per 36 was 22/13/6, LOL. Raw numbers 17/10/5 in 28 mpg. That's too good production in your second season to count.

Goran Dragic was a late bloomer.
Not a Stan account…yet.

The Mavs tried to ruin him.

The Mavs missed the playoffs without Brunson.

I'm just wondering if there were any other late bloomers like that? You can contribute part of it to playing behind Luka but literally no one saw this.
I won't call him a late-bloomer but pattern-wise Monta Ellis is similar.
Drafted in the second round, 6.8ppg in rookie season, and averaged 25ppg by fifth season.

In the season that he's ascended to 'superstar' level he's not even in the handful of names that will get MIP votes, so just of the players from this year it seems most don't even think he's made a bigger leap than any of them.
I'm getting tired of all these Brunson threads...at least it isn't Knicks fans starting them, though, that would make it worse.
Leave Jalen alone!!!
