Somewhat disappointing after a strong start, Niang’s minutes have been cut back in the last few weeks as the Jazz have struggled offensively. His numbers still look good. He’s shooting 45 percent overall and 40 percent from 3 point range, but he has really struggled in November, making only 30 percent of his field goals and shooting 3-13 from 3. Perhaps the Jazz will find more ways to get him involved as they try and sort out good offensive lineups.
Monte Morris (Denver Nuggets)
Morris is continuing to impress in an expanded roll with the Nuggets. He was given his first career start against the Hawks on November 15th after regular starter Jamal Murray was benched for disciplinary reasons.
