One of the best aspects of the Minnesota Timberwolves' season has been Jaden McDaniels' offensive growth. The 25-year-old forward is averaging a career-best 15.2 points, which is a notable jump from his previous career-high of 12. Even still, I'd like to see McDaniels be more of a focal point in the Wolves' offense.
Despite his scoring jump, McDaniels is averaging just 1.4 more field goals and is actually shooting slightly fewer 3-pointers. While McDaniels' 3-point volume is slightly down, he has increased his efficiency by 6.8 percent.
When McDaniels scores, it's nearly always within the flow of the offense or transition, and that's fine.
