PATTERNS

Struggling. Gibson has posted negative impact in 90% of games this season. The production rarely outweighs the cost.

Average defender. Gibson doesn't hurt you defensively, but he's not making opponents uncomfortable either.

Flat trajectory all season — first-half impact -5.7, second-half -6.0. No major shifts, which fits with the overall steadiness.

In a rough stretch — 6 straight games with negative impact. Longest cold streak this season: 6 games.
