#Grizzlies friends, let's have a quick talk about Dillon Brooks
First of all, Dillon Brooks is not good enough to be a team’s 2nd or 3rd option. No one disagrees with this, except for Dillon
In the year since Dillon Brooks got his extension, his shooting stats are absolutely ghastly. In 42 games since the 2020 trade deadline, he is averaging
16.0 pts on 16.2 fgas
37.8% fgs 29.6% 3pts 77.6% fts
16.0 pts on 16.2 fgas
37.8% fgs 29.6% 3pts 77.6% fts
However, some context is needed for these bad stats.
Jae Crowder and Solomon Hill were traded away last deadline and not replaced. And Jaren Jackson Jr. has played just 8 games since then.
As a result, Dillon's burden is too much
