Brunson and Clarkson are the only non-starters in the top-20.
He's also a member of the .600 Club (TS%)...tied for 19th in the NBA. Outside of the bigs on the list, you have Ingles, Joe Harris, MPjr, KD, Norman Powell, Mikal Bridges, Zach LaVine and Steph Curry ahead of Brunson. What is even more impressive is Brunson creates about 74% of his own 2 point attempts (unassisted).
Other club members include WCS .644, Melli .643 (small sample size alert), Maxi .632 and Luka at .600 (OMG on that usage. That is nuts). Powell, .597, THJ .588 and KP .582 are close and all trending in that direction after rough numbers earlier in the season. It must be fun to play O on the Mav's. Redick is a career .602. I'm hoping for some McDermott-like numbers here so that some team will need to pay above the MLE to get him this summer.
