First up is Richard Jefferson.

Jefferson played a good bit of minutes in this game due to the absence of Wilson Chandler, but wasn’t very memorable.

He passed the ball well, finishing with three assists off of the bench, but didn’t shoot great.

He went 1/4 from the field with a missed free throw, two points and a -7 plus-minus rating.

Due to the lack of scoring and plus-minus rating, I have decided to dock Jefferson’s grade a bit, but passing does mean something.

Final Grade: C-
