NBA analyst of our sister site HoopsHype Alberto De Roa put together a new metric he dubbed “Global Rating” that, as he puts it “combines players’ and teams’ statistics to rank players according to their productivity on the court” which also factors in the number of contests a given player has been unavailable for in a specific season (for a more detailed breakdown, check this out).
For the 2022-23 NBA season so far, De Roa has not only used Global Rating to analyze the NBA’s players against one another but also how each draft class remaining in the league stacks up against their peers.
For the 2016 NBA draft class, star Boston Celtics wing Jaylen Brown is rated out as the third-best player from his draft class this season.
The Fenway Sports Group is reportedly selling Liverpool FC, and Celtics co-owner Steve Pagliuca may be a name to keep an eye on. https://t.co/FpQYPRN9tC

Trailing only Dejounte Murray and Pascal Siakam and just ahead of Jakob Poeltl, the Georgia native is playing at the level of the 41st-best player in the league per the HoopsHype metric.
