Malcolm Brogdon scores 25 points in loss to the Jazz

Fantasy Impact:

Brogdon scored 25.0 points in the Trail Blazers' loss to the Jazz, putting together an impressive all-around scoring performance as he shot 47.1 percent from the floor and 55.6 percent from beyond the arc. This outing was also his second straight game, filling the stat sheet and demonstrating his value as a multi-categorical contributor. Although he has seen his shooting efficiency decrease substantially compared to last season's averages, he has seen a sizable increase across several other performance categories, with the most noteworthy being assists and points. Given his conservative appeal and fluidity of usage in the team's backcourt, he may not have been on most manager's radar; however, that has changed as he has elevated himself to borderline must-start status in most season-long leagues, given his versatility and the multi-faceted quality of his produced value. Although he has shown impressive upside potential, his price point appears inflated, lowering his appeal in daily formats. Brogdon has a usage rate of 27.2 percent, a plus-minus -0.4, and averages 29.2 minutes, 18.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 0.9 steals,, and 0.2 blocks per game while shooting 41.7 percent from the floor and 38.5 percent from beyond the arc.
