The Cleveland Cavaliers got really impressive play from Collin Sexton post-All-Star break, as the rookie averaged 20.8 points on 55.0% effective field goal shooting, which included him shooting 41.3% from three-point range on 5.8 attempts per game, a huge uptick from pre-All-Star break with just 2.7 attempts per game, to go with 3.0 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game, per NBA.com.
For the season, Sexton joined elite company, as only the third rookie in NBA history (alongside Stephen Curry and Larry Bird) to play 2,000 minutes, average 16.3 points per game (I know that’s a weird mark), and shoot 40.
