The NBA’s matchup counts: possessions one man guarded another, and the points and shots that came of them. Usual is a scorer’s rate on everyone else who guarded him in the same years. Ranked with 250 possessions or more, about four full games of one man on the other, and a long record counts for more than a short one.
Connaughton's assists have fallen the most of his numbers this season, to 3.0 per 100 possessions from 5.6.
He's averaging 2.6 points a game on 58.6% true shooting. He's making 51.5% of his twos and 21 for 52 on threes (40.4%), and takes 23.5 free throws per 100 shots.
He takes 40.0% of his shots from three above the break and is 13 for 34 there.
