Bogdan Bogdanovic:

Shooting guard, Sacramento Kings:  14.8 points, 4.0  assists, 3.6  rebounds, 1.1 steals, 33.2 percent 3PFG%.

In 45 games this season the Serbian has scored in double figures on 36 occasions. On 10 occasions he’s notched between 20 and 29 points. His high point came in a 26 point effort versus the LA Clippers. As a rookie Bogdanovic hit the deep ball at a 39.2 percent clip.

This season Bogdan Bogdanovic has experienced a slight regression connecting on 33.2 percent from the perimeter. A rough February of 17.2 percent from deep is the reason behind the slippage. Suffice to say the guard is probably quite happy to get some R and R over the break.

This player is one of my favorites to watch as he doesn’t back away from moments and is one of those players who displays his absolute joy in playing. The highlight of this season was his dagger 3-point clutch game winner versus the LA Lakers.
