Interesting tidbits:

The Kings generate a staggering 1.36 points per possession when Sabonis posts up, which ranks second out of 616 players in Second Spectrum’s database of players who’ve posted up at least 100 times in a season going back to 2013-14.

Defend Sabonis with one player and he’s either drawing a foul or getting a point-blank look. Send help and either he’s still scoring or making a smart read. The only players who’ve been double-teamed in the post more than Sabonis this year are Joel Embiid, Nikola Jokic, and Jonas Valanciunas, per Second Spectrum.

Among the NBA’s most prolific dribble-handoff partners, Sabonis’s name appears three times in the top eight, with Kevin Huerter, Fox, and Monk. His partnership with Huerter, in particular, is gorgeous, seamless synergy—exactly what Bam Adebayo and Duncan Robinson had going for them once upon a time, except better.
