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

THE SEASON SO FAR
Jock Landale’s first 20 games were defined by a stark transition from a struggling starter to a devastating bench weapon. Early on, his starting minutes actively hurt the team, as seen on 10/22 vs NOP. Despite scoring a respectable 10 points, he bled points in the paint while trapped in drop coverage, dragging him down to a disastrous -9.0 impact score. A mid-November demotion to the second unit completely flipped the script. Unleashed against backup bigs on 11/20 vs SAC, Landale erupted for 21 points in just 15 minutes. He posted an astronomical +20.1 impact score in that contest by ruthlessly finishing pick-and-roll rim runs. He followed up that dominance on 11/24 vs DEN with 26 points and 10 rebounds, generating a +9.5 impact by bullying the interior with physical drop-step moves.
Jock Landale’s mid-season stretch was defined by a wild, unpredictable metamorphosis from a gritty bench enforcer into an occasional offensive focal point. On 12/07 vs POR, he generated a massive +13.0 impact not just by scoring 15 points, but by setting bone-crushing screens that consistently freed his guards for downhill attacks. His absolute peak arrived weeks later on 01/18 vs ORL. Operating with ruthless efficiency, Landale shot 9-of-11 from the floor to tally 21 points and a staggering +21.3 impact score. Yet, this newfound offensive ambition sometimes blew up in his face. During his start on 01/07 vs PHX, a brutal 0-for-5 shooting night and an inability to finish through contact dragged him down to a miserable -5.8 impact. When he stuck to punishing smaller defenders and executing simple pick-and-pops, he thrived as a tactical weapon. However, whenever he forced brick-heavy sequences or lagged in defensive coverage, his on-court value evaporated.
A turbulent demotion from the starting lineup to the bench defined this chaotic stretch for Jock Landale. When his jumper was falling, he looked like a dangerous floor-stretching weapon. During 02/05 vs UTA, he caught absolute fire, draining five threes for 26 points and 11 rebounds to generate a massive +19.9 impact score by pulling opposing bigs out of the paint. He replicated that magic off the bench during 02/22 vs BKN, where a perfect 3-for-3 mark from deep fueled a +15.4 impact that completely broke Brooklyn's coverage principles. But when his touch vanished, his minutes became actively harmful. A total inability to convert easy looks during 03/10 vs DAL resulted in a brutal -9.2 impact score, turning his scoreless shift into an offensive black hole. Still, Landale occasionally salvaged quiet nights through sheer effort, like his +3.0 impact on just six points during 02/24 vs WAS, driven entirely by gritty trench work and an elite +5.2 hustle score.
