Not playing much this season, Trail Blazers forward Jake Layman has seen his fair share of sitting on the bench. The forward has only appeared in 20 of Portland’s 48 games this year, and has averaged a minimal 6.1 minutes per game. This role is similar to one Pat Connaughton shared last season before breaking out this year.
With this amount of time sitting, Layman has learned about how to act on the bench. And he knows to not sit next to “super-sweaty” Noah Vonleh, as Yaron Weitzman of Bleacher Report dishes on bench life from players:
”You want to stay clear of the super-sweaty guys,” Layman says.
