Keyonte George’s Star Ascension

Don't know if it's intentional or not, but I don't think we need bad statistical arguments to glaze Key. No need to pull a Locke.

having the highest usage on the team and being clearly above average TS% is a pretty big deal. that was always Don's issue. He couldnever quite get above league average but the truly great players always do. Not saying Key is a great player. He'll have to sustain it year in and year out. But it is a positive sign being in the 60s at age 22.

Donovan never became anything more than a moderate foul drawer

Kudos for brining up the fact that TS% has increased since then. Numbers have gone up quite a bit in just a few years. I see so many people comparing today’s efficiency to a previous time and that’s just not right. Key is still more efficient in a relative sense, but it’s not as much as it appears on the surface.

But the elephant in the room with all of this is the other side of the ball. I think Key is comparable or maybe even better than Don offensively, but if we’re going to call one player overrated it’s only fair to consider both sides of the ball.
