  • He is currently 1739 points behind the leader: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

Breakdown Jaden McDaniels

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 44th among PF's. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 9th with 1554 total points (25.90 avg).
  • He is currently 1097 points behind the leader: Giannis Antetokounmpo
  • He is doing a lot better than most people thought he would. Can he keep this up or is it a fluke?
  • His average points in the past two weeks have increased by 11.3 PPG. That is great, but how long can he perform at this level? If you don't have the confidence he can keep it up, then trade him for a sure thing.

  • Shooting 30.65% from beyond the arc this month.
