Compare Ingram's stats from last season to this season:
PPG: 18.3 -> 25.3
RPG: 5.1 -> 7.1
APG: 3.0 -> 3.8
TS: 55.5 -> 60.3
Net RTG: -8 -> +1
So thats +7pts, +2rbds, +0.8asts, +4.8 TS%, +9 NetRtg. This is all really good improvement. But take a look at, for example, Devonte' Graham this year compared to last.
PPG: 4.7 -> 19.3
RPG: 1.4 -> 3.7
APG: 2.6 -> 7.5
TS: 45.9 -> 54.8
Net RTG: -11 -> -5
That's +14.6pts, +2.3rbds, +4.9asts, +8.9 TS%, +6 NetRtg. That leap is crazy.
Lots of guys taking big jumps this year.
