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

Blake Wesley’s early-season stretch was defined by frantic energy that frequently sabotaged his own team. When he managed to find the basket, as he did scoring 10 points on 02/03 vs PHX, severe defensive lapses dragged his impact down to an abysmal -9.1. A similar story unfolded on 03/01 vs ATL, where an aggressive 12-point scoring surge was entirely erased by defensive breakdowns and ball-security issues, yielding a -5.9 impact score. His reckless pacing routinely caused wild drives and blown half-court spacing. Occasionally, he harnessed that erratic motor for good. On 10/31 vs DEN, Wesley tallied just 5 points but posted a +3.2 impact by hounding ball-handlers the full length of the court and altering the tempo entirely. He remains a chaotic blur of a guard who desperately needs to learn when to tap the brakes.

IMPACT TIMELINE

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

PATTERNS

Struggling. Wesley has posted negative impact in 75% of games this season. The production rarely outweighs the cost.

Streaky shooter — only cracks 45% from the field in 38% of games. Efficiency is all over the place night-to-night.

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

Flat trajectory all season — first-half impact -2.4, second-half -1.7. No major shifts, which fits with the overall steadiness.

Tends to go on runs. Longest hot streak: 2 games. Longest cold streak: 9 games.
