Every aspect of Otto Porter's offensive game improved last year over his disappointing rookie season. Last season Porter's FT% went from 66.7% to 73.4%, his 2PT% went from 41.4% to 49.1%, his 3PT% went from a horrendous 19% to 33.7%, his eFG% went from 38.5% to 49.5%, his minutes played per game went from 8.6 to 19.4, and his PPG went from 2.1 to 6.0. While his offensive game may have still been an issue, his defensive game was not. In 19.4 minute per game, Porter averaged 0.6 steals and 0.4 blocks per game, which translates to 1.6 steals and 1.1 blocks per 100 possessions. Porter's performance and opportunity is trending up in a big way, and now without Paul Pierce blocking playing time with the Wizards, Otto is a much safer deep option for fantasy basketball managers to earn contributions in most categories.
