Ish Smith’s Addition Has Transformed the Sixers
Trading for Ish Smith this season is a move that has given the Philadelphia 76ers an incredibly new look.
The Urban Dictionary defines ‘ish’ as something that is really good.
This definition is fitting, because since Philadelphia’s own Ish (Smith) returned to the Sixers, that is exactly what he has been.
Ish Smith’s personal play has been phenomenal since his return to Philadelphia. He is averaging a career high 16.5 points per game since re-joining the Sixers this season, while also dishing out 8.5 assists per game, also a career high. That per game assist output is good for fifth in the entire NBA, even with the Timberwolves’ Ricky Rubio.
