Coby White is a stud 

Post#1 » by Roy T » Wed Dec 13, 2023 11:05 pm

Coby White's impressive performance in his last 10 games can be attributed to several key statistics:

23.6 points per game
5.1 assists per game
4.6 rebounds per game

White's shooting efficiency was notable with an average field goal percentage of 50.3% and an impressive three-point percentage of 53.2%.

He should be in the race for MIP and get the starting spot once Lavine or DeRozan are traded.

He has been a major bright spot for the Bulls this year. I stan.

Also only on a 3yr/$36mm contract. If he continues even at his current level, he'll get a massive raise on his next contract.

He also actually tries on defense.

Stud.

Always been a fan and wouldn't mind seeing him as the starting point guard for my Spurs. Doubt Chicago would move him now that they seem to be headed towards a rebuild.

What part of his 10 game hot streak actually seems sustainable? The 50+ percent from 3? The scorching overall fg% from a guy who’s never shot 45% from the field and has a 42% career field goal percentage?

This isn't an unsustainable hot streak. Obviously the 3 ball at 50% won''t last but he'll settle into 40% at 8-9 attempts long term.

Coby's progress recently has been remarkable. The game has completely slowed down for him and he consistently makes the right decisions with the ball in hand. His ball handling and defensive improvements have been fantastic as well.

He's looking like a future all star. I can see him averaging 25/5/5 long term in the right situation.

His development with his ball handling skills and playmaking has been great this past year. Just needs to be consistent scoring wise, and better at finishing at the rim (gets blocked a lot).

After he just signed an extremely team friendly contract? Doesn't seem smart at all. Guy is just getting started.

And to the OP, he is already in the starting lineup.

When was the last time UNC produced a allstar player Vince Carter?

I watched him play as a rookie in the summer league and I thought he was typically the most talented scorer on the court. Seemed like he was in total control of his body while driving and on the pick and roll.

I’m not surprised to see him play this well, I’m surprised it took this long to give him a chance.

He recently signed a three year 36 million dollar contract.
