PATTERNS

Boom-or-bust player. Slawson's impact swings wildly relative to his average — some nights dominant, others invisible. Scoring varies by ~7 points per game.

Middle-of-the-road efficiency — shoots 45%+ from the field in 57% of games. Not automatic, but not a problem either.

Defensive difference-maker. Slawson consistently forces tough shots and protects the rim — opponents shoot worse when he's guarding them.
