Tom Ziller of SB Nation is back on Waiters Island: “My belief that Waiters is a viable breakout candidate is based fully on what the basketball spirits whisper to me in my fever dreams, not what the data says. (Because the data says he is one of the least productive players in the NBA.) Waiters is 23, he’s been in a tough spot his entire career and he’ll finally have a chance to live in the shadows under a healthy Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. Billy Donovan will find ways to make Waiters acceptable, and acceptance is the first step toward change.
