Ingles, who averages only 11.5 points per game on 43.2 percent shooting, can dominate without scoring because he can stuff the stat sheet in a way few players his size (6-foot-8 and 226 pounds) can. There are only three players 6-foot-8 and taller in the NBA averaging more than five 3-point attempts, four assists, and one steal per game this season: LeBron James, Khris Middleton, and Ingles. A player with such a diverse skill set can fill a lot of gaps in a lineup. The Jazz have a net rating of plus-6.8 in 1,490 minutes with Ingles this season and minus-4.1 in 814 minutes without him. Rudy Gobert is their only player with comparable on-court/off-court numbers.
 
The interesting thing is that his on/off numbers are still so good, despite his shot being wonky this season. Shows how many ways he contributes. The commentators during the Denver game were calling him our 2nd best defender- I don't necessarily think he's better than Favs on D, but considering who he's capable of guarding, he's more versatile on D than Favs.
 
Some folks got their panties all up in a bunch when Ingles made a couple slightly sarcastic remarks about the fans in Utah booing.

This is how they handle it in NYC


 
Who's the numbnuts around here who keeps talking about how he should be moved to the bench? I can't remember
