Away from draft pick pressure, Alex Len enjoys the best season of his career

ATLANTA — Alex Len is feeling right at home on the floor with the Hawks.

After five seasons of battling injuries in Phoenix, the 7-foot-1 center said that he’s feeling healthier than he ever has and it shows — Len is currently putting up the best statistics of his career. On the second night of back-to-backs he’s averaging 13.7 points and 6 rebounds, and in the last six games, he’s averaged 11.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per night. Most marks are above his career averages of 7.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, and a block per game while playing the same 20 minutes each night that he’s always averaged during his time in the league.
