Posted Feb 20, 2017
What do Klay Thompson, Kawhi Leonard, and Harrison Barnes have in common? They each average 20+ points per game and they’re all top-10 in the NBA in points per touch, at least among heavy-usage guys. Of the top 112 NBA players in frontcourt touches per game — roughly the top-quarter of the league — Barnes ranks 10th in points per touch, at 0.372. (Dallas Mavericks)
