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

PATTERNS

Boom-or-bust player. Smith's impact swings wildly relative to his average — some nights dominant, others invisible. Scoring varies by ~4 points per game.

Good defender on his best nights, but it comes and goes. Some games Smith locks in defensively, others he gets picked apart.

Performance has dropped off. First-half impact: +3.2, second-half: -0.2. Worth watching whether it's fatigue, injury, or opponents adjusting.
