Isaiah Thomas has a 54.4 efg% on 19.8 ppg w/ 6.3ast, on top of 33.9% usage, pretty beast.

probably end up in the 20s for ast% & sub 10 tov% at tier 1 usage, 54% usage & pretty good fta ratio... depending on def rating could be a stud!

That's the kicker, if he gets even a 50 defense he's a first round pick. I would guess it's around 40, but might be as low as 30.

I stumbled on to this. I'll list some guys now.

Otto Porter Jr. - 14.4 PPG, 6.7 RPG, 63.2 efg% 0.7 topg 112 three's and counting.

Could be interesting, wonder where his D will be. Think it could be in the 80's

Lou Williams, super sub (as long as you don't care about defense)

Nikola Jokic

23.1 Usage with 60.6 eFG%! 12/24 Reb% and 26.9 Ast% (which will be nerfed probably to low 20s or high teens). Decent Tov% of 14.4 and average defender. But with the high eFG he could be a 2nd or 3rd round pick depending on how bad the D and amount of minutes (1319 at All Star Break)

It will be interesting watching how DeMarcus Cousins' partial season with the Pellies turns out

Embiid's year is done too bad

He'll still be a 6th round pick, like Chris Gating or Roy Tarpley

Lebron is quietly having another season just below the level of 12-13. 59% efg on 29.6% usage, ast% equivalent to his best year in that department (09-10), and rebounding at his normal pace. Playing more minutes, too. Only thing that'll probably hold him back at this point is lack of getting on all-defense 1st team, which is probably ludicrous but hey.

Assuming they assign him the default defense of 60, this is a bargain season. I would probably put this season 4th behind 2 of the Miami seasons and 09-10 for overall value. His turnover rate is higher than ever, and I'm not sure how much they will curb his assists.

I would guess D in the mid-40s. I think at best, owners are choosing between him and Kevin Love.

Good call on the turnovers. I didn't notice he's at a 16.6 clip there. The ast% is similar to 09-10 season, which ended up being 28%. He had a higher usage there, so I would expect it to not get knocked down quite so far.

Side question: Will this year's Westbrook be even close to usable? He is about to break the usage record while having a efg under 47%. Also, his turnovers are off the charts and I expect his defense to be pretty low. Since a lot of his scorign this year is coming at the free throw line, I don't see how such a statistical anomaly of a season can hold up in sim universe.

I probably wouldn't touch it.

Karl Anthony Towns

27.4% usage at a 56% eFG. Rebounding 11/27 and 11.8% TOV. This definitely can move him up the draft boards. Unless he gets hosed on his is D rating again
