2017 NBA Manifesto
Malcolm Brogdon
PG/SG, 6’5, 215lbs, 24 years old, 1 year of experience
Excellent second half to the season, in which he steadied a position that needed a veteran hand. It was very weird to get said steady hand from a rookie, but there we go, such is the Brogdon way. Kept his turnovers lot, kept his shooting percentages high, overperformed athletically relative to the scouting reports with an occasional but real burst that is in stark contrast to his otherwise leisurely-paced game and mediocre lateral quickness, and demonstrated very good court awareness and shot selection for one so new to the league. Brogdon’s upside may not be the biggest, especially defensively, but this was a plenty solid year for Brogdon, and there could be many more of them to come yet.
Player Plan: Two minimum salary seasons remaining, and a very obvious “keep”.
