Wiggins was drafted based on defensive potential so why is he #73 on DRPM?

#1 pick

Rubio rates as one of the best drpm pg defenders . Towns would be in the top 30 too, but drpm weighs heavy against rookies
It weighs heavily v. shyt defenders. It's not close to perfect but Wiggins is a bad team defender.

oh shut the fukk up. he averaged 21 PPG on 45% shooting while getting to the line consistently, fukk off pretending like he hasn't been a good offensive player. :camby:
ALMOST every other shot of his is a free throw with a 43 ftr and he still only has a 53 % ts as a sg

And the dirty little secret? A lot of that was Iso work. The Wolves getting the right coach in there is key for Wiggins because he's going to become an all-around force on offense. Coming off screens, cutting to the basket, some pick and roll stuff. Only blemish is that 3 ball. Need that, but if he can get to like 34 percent, man....

Dude needs to drastically improve his handle to take full advantage of his athleticism. He needs to see that Spurs shooting coach ASAP!

Two years ago Westbrook had a 55% TS and was 177 in the league in DRPM.

SMH PEOPLE STILL USIN ANALYTICS TO DEFINE PLAYERS? WHERE DID THAT GET HOUSTON?? JUS STOP IT


The two best teams in the league heavily use analytics :mjlol:


The Warriors use it in damn near every move they make.
