Next man up: Juancho Hernangomez.

Juancho has been playing some relevant playing time since sitting out the first part of the season with an illness.

More from Nugg Love

He picked up where he left off with 23 minutes in the game as a starter, finishing with five points and three rebounds.

I know that the plus-minus rating can be deceiving sometimes, but it’s also hard to ignore it sometimes.

I get it, Juancho didn’t have a very attractive stat-line.

He did have a +11 rating though, which means a lot of the aspects he brought don’t show up in the stat sheet.

Final Grade: B
