Thad Young named NBA's Hustle Award winner

Young led all NBA players in charges drawn per minute and loose balls recovered on offense per minute.

Thad Young was named the winner of the NBA's Hustle Award, joining previous winners Patrick Beverley, Amir Johnson, Marcus Smart and Montrezl Harrell last season. He averaged 12.1 points per game this past season and believes he can continue to play at a high level for several more seasons.

It's not even one of those arcane analytical statistics, but it's something I've seen Bulls forward Thad Young do so often the last few years that I began to notice.
