R.J.
BARRETT

New York • 2020-21
Dec. 14, 2020 - R.J. Barrett's rookie season was marred by dysfunction and uncertainty at an organizational level. In 2020-21, the 20-year-old has a chance to play more of a significant role as part of the team's core. Barrett may need to refine his game at the NBA level in order to produce efficiently with a Tom Thibodeau workload but he'll put up respectable counting numbers while he figures it out.

Third installment of this season’s Top-50NBA Prospect Rankings. Today, the 10 players ranked from No. 20 to No. 11 are unveiled. Deep dives and analysis into each, including Anthony Edwards, OG Anunoby, R.J. Barrett, Deandre Ayton and six others: t.co t.co

R.J. Barrett gets the shot he wants – a drive to his left hand – but his layup rolls off the front of the rim, and the Heat pull off a sweep of the Knicks. 9th through 13th in the East is now separated by a single game.

Tommy Beer
Among all NBA sophomores this season, R.J. Barrett ranks: * Second in points scored (behind only Zion) * Second in rebounds (behind Keldon Johnson) * Second in assists (behind Coby White) * Secon in made FT's (behind Zion Williamson)

R.J. Barrett is having a good season for the Knicks. t.co

Tommy Beer
On the season, R.J. Barrett is averaging 17.8 points, 7.3 rebs and 3.5 assists. Only three players in NBA history have matched or exceeded those per-game averages over a full season before turning 21: * Magic Johnson in 1979-80 * LeBron James in 2004-05 * Luka Dončićin 2018-19 t.co

R.J. Barrett is leading the NBA in average distance covered by a significant margin, as he's running 3.04 miles per game. The runner-up is Isaac Okoro, who's running just 2.87 miles per game. And Julius Randle is running 2.79 miles per game, which is 4th-most among all players. t.co

The Knicks are legit kinda fun, and R.J. Barrett has been good in more games than he’s been bad this season (and he’s been legit great in three of seven games). Good for Thibs. They look legit competent and not fun to play.
