PATTERNS

Struggling. Poulakidas has posted negative impact in 77% of games this season. The production rarely outweighs the cost.

Middle-of-the-road efficiency — shoots 45%+ from the field in 44% of games. Not automatic, but not a problem either.

Getting better as the season goes on. First-half impact: -5.0, second-half: +0.0. That's a significant jump — could be a role change, confidence, or development clicking.

Tends to go on runs. Longest hot streak: 1 games. Longest cold streak: 9 games.
