Jaylen Brown, whose participation in the next game is in question, helps him with 23.4 points and 5.2 rebounds.

The best player for opponents this season was Paskāls Siakams, who scored 22.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists. On the other hand, Scotty Barnes added 20.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 5.7 assists.
