BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 43% of leagues
ANALYSIS: The Clippers have used Reggie Jackson as their starting point guard all year long and that hasn't surprised anyone, not even backup PG John Wall. Wall signed with the Clips fully knowing the role he'd play for the lesser of the Hollywood franchises and truth be told, he's excelled at it.
Wall started three games in the past two weeks but that shouldn't happen that many times going forward. It had been two months and 21 games played before that happened, and it won't change. This, though, might actually be a great week to land some shares of Wall considering the little slump he's going through to finish the 2022 calendar year (mostly on the shooting front).
On a per-minute basis, Wall is the absolute best player in the NBA currently rostered in fewer than half of all ESPN leagues (min. 500 MP over the year). He's averaging 1.10 FP/min (league average at 0.90) and he's doing it on a palatable 23 MPG diet.
Wall is one of two players averaging 12+ PPG, 5+ APG, and 2+ RPG on fewer than 25 MPG this season. He's also contributing 1.1 stocks a pop to go with nearly one 3PM per game.
The shooting, again, has sucked a bit on the year (40/26/67 splits) but he should bounce back at least a bit and even more with Paul George and Kawhi Leonard available and taking some attention off Wall in the brief minutes they share the court.
