He's having one of those Marjanovic years in terms of PER. Just comes off the bench and puts up immediate double-double in limited minutes. Him and Ayton are both ranked top 7 in fg % while Bridges is currently 15th. That's THREE players on one team shoot a high %
He's had nice impact, even if it's against bench guys. As awkward as he looks, he is a perfect bench energy guy. The turnovers hurt but just the energy, rebounding and ability to finish outside of the rim is nice. He knows his limits, so focuses on the things he's good at.
He is much more than a bench energy guy.
He is playing very well against starting Cs, he has already started on 7 games for us this season. All wins.
As a starter he averages 13.3 points, 8.6 boards and 1.3 blocks. +19.7 with him on the court.
Yeah, he's played well this year. Not bad starting stats for a C. But he is typically better in fewer minutes with more energy.
He is by far having his best season at age 33 and it might be a run like Baynes had that year to start his season before he took a dip. Hopefully not and I have no real reason to believe so other than normal regression to the mean due to the past and age so wear and tear as the season goes on.
