Brace yourself for these stats. Aaron Brooks shot 25.0% from the field throughout the first 12 games of the month of December. He also shot 11.1% from deep, averaging just 2.7 points per game.
Your team is automatically at a disadvantage when your backup point guard is putting up numbers like that.
Thankfully, for the Indiana Pacers, Brooks has gotten it going as of late. He broke out of his slump big time in the Pacers’ loss to the Chicago Bulls in Chicago on December 26th. Brooks scored a season-high 19 points against his former team.
