Man, I didn't realize Saddiq Bey was ballin' out up in Michigan.

In an unlikely win over the Celtics, Bey became the first rookie in league history to make seven 3s in a game without a miss, and his performance throughout the week earned him Player of the Week honors. Entering the league he was lauded for the defense he could provide as he develops, and while that is still a work in process, his offensive game has been superb so far. He ranks in the 85th percentile in the league for spot-up shooters, he's got a versatile post-up game when the Pistons want to feed him down low, and he's been tremendous in transition. His play is one of the main reasons Detroit won two games in the same week for just the second time this season.
