If he played 25 mpg I could see him closing in on double double territory or at least 8 and 8.
Ado struggled for the first 15 minutes and was great after that. Seems to be a theme for him that it takes him a bit to get going. When he's playing well he is our best big man and it's not really close.

When he is active he is a force!! I agree he needs to get out of the box faster so he can stay on the floor but would rather he starts out with the same energy. If he plays like this and we can figure out that 4 spot...we will be in good shape. Between Ody, Vik and JD we should be able to end up with something good there.

The guards will be hot and cold...so we should be able to find 2 guys per night having a decent game. I'm not down on anyone yet...every player has a cold stretch...no big deal.

The Justin Jenifer role. Jenifer knew when to shoot. He also played with a lot more talent around him.

Our turnovers as a team are way down, but we also only pass outside the perimeter, so you shouldn’t really ever turn the ball over.

Yep, he's a great game manager. He should stop trying to be a scorer. He leads the team in attempts at the rim (more than Ado and Koval combined) but he converts an awful 44%. He's third on the team in midrange attempts (15%) and third in three point attempts (19%). He's not a good enough scorer to be a top three option.

Holy shyte! I knew he was doing good but not that good. Jenifer was up there for a long time in the top 5 or so.

He's a career 31% shooter from 3 and that is with going 2 for 20 in last four games. If he makes his career % in those 4 games he is at 32% on the year and probably also his career. Clearly volume is not his thing. He needs to be a picky set shooter. As for his 2's he was 46% last year and 49% the year before. Always been solid at the line until recently. He's not a volume play maker or shooter but solid otherwise.

I'm giving him a break for a bad stretch but needs to cut volume as well.
