There is admittedly a lot of time left until the NBA All-Star Game. To be precise, there’s three months, or 13-ish weeks, or 92 days (or 44 games if you’re a Spurs fan) until the 24 best players in the NBA descend upon Cleveland on Feb. 20, 2022.
But every team in the league has played at least 15 games now, or 18% of their schedule, which means we should have a little bit of an idea of who’s off to a decent start and who’s not.
Dejounte Murray falls in the former group. The “sporadically anointed point guard of the future turned lead guard of the present” is averaging 18.
