BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 4% of leagues
ANALYSIS: It's been just 11 games played since coming back on Dec. 2 and playing basketball for the first time in two years for T.J. Warren. The results? Optimal, to say the least. Warren has lost not a single bit of talent since he went down injured and since returning to the court, the Nets have put together a blistering 10-1 run through Dec. 30.
Warren is playing off the pine and that won't change ROS because that's the role the Nets signed him for and that he agreed to take on when he inked his deal with Brooklyn. That said, Warren has played more and more minutes of late and he's gone from playing 16 MPG in his first seven games back to a much more palatable 24 MPG in his last four through Friday.
The veteran forward is scoring points with gaudy shooting percentages (he's shot below 45% just three times in 11 games) on a low-but-increasing volume. Warren is hoisting 7.5+ FGA per game since coming back but that number has gone up a bit in the past four games to 10 FGA a pop.
In matchups in which Warren has attempted at least six FGA (seven of his 11 games played), he's finished with an average of 13+ PPG to go with exactly one 3PM per contest. Warren is not adding much more than points to his stat lines, though, with low 1.7 APG and 3.2 RPG averages.
He's a borderline 1.0 blocks-per-game average, but that's stretching things a bit as he only has three blocks over 11 games and they happened in two separate games.
