PATTERNS

Boom-or-bust player. Bal's impact swings wildly relative to his average — some nights dominant, others invisible. Scoring varies by ~6 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 impact is minimal for a 30-minute player. Not generating enough contests, rim protection, or forced turnovers to move the needle.

Getting better as the season goes on. First-half impact: -7.3, second-half: +2.3. That's a significant jump — could be a role change, confidence, or development clicking.
