For the uninitiated:

ORPM: Player's estimated on-court impact on team offensive performance, measured in points scored per 100 offensive possessions
DRPM: Player's estimated on-court impact on team defensive performance, measured in points allowed per 100 defensive possessions
RPM: Player's estimated on-court impact on team performance, measured in net point differential per 100 offensive and defensive possessions. RPM takes into account teammates, opponents and additional factors

Some Lakers specific highlights:

Only Lakers in top 50:

Brook Lopez (+0.84 O, +1.93 D = +2.77, 22nd in the league, 7th amongst centers)
Julius Randle (+0.61 O, +1.38 D = +1.99, 39th in the league, 12th amongst PFs)

Other notables:

Lonzo Ball: (-2.09 O, +0.54 D = -1.55, 47th amongst PGs)
Brandon Ingram: (-1.83 O, -0.49 D = -2.32, 74th amongst SFs)

Cavs are at the bottom of every category though. :lol:

TT, JR, Wade, Rose are terrible.

You can still see a trend. No one is going to argue otherwise if you said Lopez and Randle are our two best players right now.

Clarkson higher than Lonzo but both are higher than D'lo...

Zo's DRPM is ranked 9th among PGs. So much for the narrative that he'll be a defensive liability. When he puts on some muscle he'll be even better.

Jayson Tatum 9th amongst SFs. Impressive for the rookie. Too bad he wears green so i can't root for him.

Brandon Ingram improvement while small is a welcomed sight.
