On Friday, Ty Lawson banked in a layup eight minutes into the first quarter against the Philadelphia 76ers. There was nothing extraordinary about the basket, except the fact that it was Lawson's first score in three games.
With a 7.46 PER, Ty Lawson is statistically the fourth worst point guard in the NBA*, prompting J.B. Bickerstaff to reduce his minutes to next to none. In the past four games, Lawson has played a total of 36 minutes, including a three-minuteperformance versus the Memphis Grizzlies and a DNP against the Knicks.
