Russell Westbrook
An afterthought -- interesting to compare RW first year in the league with what Fultz is experiencing now. Like Fultz, he was a great college player, and was the #4 first round draft pick in 2008. Like Fultz, he was 20 years old. How did his shooting stats compare with what Fultz has done so far?
Fultz
FG% - .422
3pt. - .305
2 pt. - .438
ORTG - 100
DRTG- 110
RW
FG% - .398
3 pt. - .271
2 pt. - .415
ORTG - 99
DRTG - 111
Amazingly similar. But RW was allowed to play 32 minutes a game because OKC was a lottery team which had no choice but to use him. Even the next year he was improved, but still not the RW he now know. Not saying that Fultz will become another RW, but probably a good idea to give him more time.
