We’re here to remind the world that the sacred, fragile unicorn is playing basketball again. In four exciting games in Dallas, he’s averaging 22.3 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3 assists per game.
He also had a career-high five assists against the Blazers Sunday night (but definitely didn’t earn all five assists).
He hasn’t changed much -- still less efficient than you’d like (42% FG on 17.5 attempts per game) -- and, at 7-foot-3, should be getting more than eight rebounds a night. But he’s the same promising talent that is now paired with soon-to-be All-Star Luka Doncic, plus seven other players who are all averaging between 7.5 and 11.3 points per game.
The Mavericks beat the Denver Nuggets on the road last night, 109-106, and are 3-1 on the season.
