Royce O'Neale Excellent In Loss
7 years agoUtah Jazz shooting guard/small forward Royce O'Neale provided a great spark in a Game 5 loss to the Houston Rockets. The rookie was able to match his series high with 17 points on 6-for-10 shooting from the floor and was able add to three rebounds and a steal. O'Neale stepped up nicely in this series in the absence of Ricky Rubio by averaging 10.4 points and 4.0 rebounds, but it was his defense on James Harden where his value cannot be seen on the stat sheet. O'Neale may have some late-round value next season in deeper leagues after his impressive series showing.
