Houston Rockets fans have been wondering whether Amen Thompson can play point guard for some time. One national reporter cited a stat that suggests he already can.
"The Rockets' Net Rating (was +10.7) when Amen Thompson was playing point guard according to our friends at CleaningTheGlass."

Interesting.
Conventional wisdom dictates that Thompson should struggle at the position. It's 2025. How can he play point without a reliable jump shot? Surely, there's some noise in these stats?
