Okay, so I’ve been digging into Josh Giddey’s performance lately, specifically focusing on his points in the last five games. It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster, to be honest. Let me walk you through what I did.
First off, I gathered all the data I could find on Giddey. I mean, this guy was the 6th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft by the Oklahoma City Thunder, so there’s gotta be a decent amount of info on him, right? Turns out, I was right. He’s now with the Chicago Bulls. His current contract is a pretty hefty one – signed for about $27 million over a few years. But that’s not what I was really after. I wanted to see how he’s been doing recently.
So, I started tracking his points in each of the last five games. It was a bit of a mixed bag. One game he only got 11 points because he hurt his ankle. Other games, his numbers were different. I jotted down each game’s points, trying to see if there was any kind of pattern.
Then, I compared these numbers to his season average. From what I could find, he’s been averaging around 11.6 points per game this season. Not bad, but not exactly lighting the world on fire. Compared to his average, some of the last five games were lower, some were higher, it felt like a real mixed bag.
My Observations
- Inconsistency: This seems to be the main takeaway. Some games he’s on fire, others, not so much. That ankle injury definitely threw a wrench in things.
- Average-ish: His recent performance isn’t drastically different from his season average. He’s hanging around that 11-point mark, more or less.
- Potential?: He’s still young, and considering he was such a high draft pick, there’s gotta be some untapped potential there. I’m curious to see if he can become more consistent as he gets more experience.
Honestly, after all this, I’m still not sure what to make of Giddey’s recent scoring. He’s definitely got the skills, but maybe he needs more time to really find his groove in the NBA. It feels like he’s still finding his feet, you know? I’ll definitely keep an eye on him and see how he develops. This was just a quick dive into his points, but it got me thinking about other aspects of his game too. Maybe I’ll look into his assists or rebounds next, who knows!
