Don't be misled by the stat-line. De Larrea was very impactful throughout most of the game. What the box score doesn't show is how good he is at organizing the offense for his team. It felt like the Mavericks had a decent look whenever he was on the court. He also seems to be a pretty good rebounder for his position with a high motor.

Also, the second highest plus minus for this game was a +14 from Dwight Powell in 15 minutes. I know it's preseason, but Sergio having this high of a plus minus in a single game as a rookie is pretty funny.

A reminder to always look at the minutes played when glancing at box scores

No knock on Caleb. He played like a really good 20 year old who is going to be special once he gets his NBA sealegs, but Boozer in a third of that time looked like a vet incapable of committing basketball sins.

All you Boozer heads on here saying he was a steal at 3, might have been right about the ROY

Keaton Wagler in win vs Warriors: 15 PTS (3-15 FG, 1-11 3PT, 8-9 FT) | 6 REB | 3 AST | 2 STL | 1 BLK

Not the best shooting night for Wagler, especially from 3, but I thought there was a lot to like everywhere else. Looked comfortable handling the ball, made some nice reads, and was great defensively. Also came up with a big bucket late to give the Clippers the lead. Pretty encouraging first showing overall, the shot will come.

Playmaking

Hey folks, I'd be interested to hear how you all grade/rate playmaking from prospects.

Are there statistical queries you use? Is it primarily certain actions on video? Do you have examples of players that you graded well or poorly that you feel good about? Are there any writers you think really grasp that aspect of draft profiling?

To be transparent, I'm having a hard time quantifying playmaking in value and in discussions around players and since I've recently begun working with a scout I'm going back to the drawing board on a weakness of mine. I appreciate anything you're willing to share.

Preseason Prospect Picks #3: Caleb Holt or Brandon McCoy?

Two 3andD combos who don’t score enough to run the point but are awesome defenders with unique offensive traits. Who you have ranked higher and why?

Also, this is more a long term question since McCoy likely won’t be in the draft this year after his ACL
