#7 Will Barton (SG/SF) FG Efficiency: 43.2%

Like Danilo Gallinari, Will Barton saw a career high in points (14.4) and field goals attempted (12.0) per-game. He also set a new benchmark for three-pointers attempted (4.0) per-game. But, where Gallinari nearly matched his career FG%, Barton actually outdid his career average of 42.1%. So, what does this mean?

It means that everything is looking up for Will the Thrill, the “People’s Champ”. Last season, Barton introduced himself onto the stage of 6th Man of the Year discussions. In this upcoming season, he may very well be the front-runner.

Watch out, Will Barton is coming in HOT.
