About this model: Net Impact can't measure floor spacing, help defense rotations, or playmaking gravity — so wings and guards are slightly undervalued vs bigs. How Net Impact works

IMPACT TIMELINE

Game-by-game performance vs average. Green = above average, red = below.

PATTERNS

Volatile for his role. Sabonis has noticeable ups and downs, with scoring moving ~7 points between games.

Reliable shooter — hits 45%+ from the field in 78% of games. You can count on efficient nights more often than not.

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

Getting better as the season goes on. First-half impact: +1.8, second-half: +5.1. That's a significant jump — could be a role change, confidence, or development clicking.
