You know, I’ve been following the Kings for a while now, and Keon Ellis is one of those guys that really caught my eye. So, I decided to dive into his performance, specifically his last five games. Let me tell you, it’s been an interesting ride.
First, I had to gather all the data, which meant scouring through game logs and box scores. I started by pulling up some stats sites, you know, the usual ones everyone uses. I spent hours just going through each game, one by one, writing down his points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks. It felt a bit tedious at times, but hey, that’s part of the process.
After I had all the numbers in one place, I started calculating his averages. Seeing those numbers side-by-side was pretty revealing. I mean, averaging 11.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, and a whopping 2.8 steals in those five games? That’s something.
I also noticed that he’s getting more playing time recently, even getting his first start of the season. I was excited to see that. I wrote down a note about him taking Doug McDermott’s spot in the starting lineup. It made me think about how he’s been stepping up his game.
Then, I went through his career stats to see how these recent games stack up against his overall performance. I learned that he’s played 104 games total. I remember watching some of them! His overall average is around 6.4 points per game, so seeing him score 11.4 points on average in the last five games is definitely impressive.
- Points: Keon Ellis has been scoring, averaging 11.4 points in his last 5 games.
- Rebounds: He’s also been active on the boards, grabbing an average of 3.8 rebounds.
- Steals: The most impressive part, for me, is his defense. Averaging 2.8 steals is huge.
Comparing With Season Averages
It got me thinking about what has changed. Was it more minutes? A change in the team’s strategy? Or maybe he’s just hitting his stride? It’s hard to say for sure, but something’s definitely clicking for him.
Then, I started comparing his recent games to his overall season averages. I put the numbers side by side, in two columns. This made it really easy to see the jump in his performance. I mean, when you’re comparing 11.4 points to his usual 6.4, it’s a big difference.
I also made some notes about his shooting. One game he went 1-5 from the field, but still managed to get 7 points by hitting all four of his free throws. That’s the kind of stuff I find interesting – the little details that tell a bigger story.
It was a lot of work, but honestly, it was also a lot of fun. I feel like I understand Keon Ellis’s game a whole lot better now. I think he is making the most of his opportunities, and it’s going to be exciting to see what he does next. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on him, and who knows, maybe I’ll do another one of these deep dives in the future.
