    Lunch break small surprising stats:

    • Payton Pritchard is averaging 3.5 AST with a 9.5 AST/TO in the past 11 games, currently 3.3 APG and 5.5 AST/TO for the season

    • Only Al Horford last year has averaged an AST/TO of 5 or more since 2008. I stopped on the big3 ring because I don’t want to go compile more data than that

    These are the players to average over 3 APG and AST/TO of 3 or better since 2008

    • DWhite (22-23 – 3.25)
    • Al Horford (22-23 – 5, 21-22 – 3.78)
    • Rozier (18-19 – 3.22)
    • Rondo (14-15 – 3.18, 13-14 – 2.97, from 11-12 to 07-08).

    Technically DWhite had 2.9 last year but I created the 3 and 3 as a criteria, he is averaging 3.21 AST/TO with 4.5 APG currently. Rozier had multiple 3 AST/TO but below 2 APG.

    This all makes sense because PP is extremely good handling the ball, he has a 0.7 TOV average for his nba career with 71% being bad passes and 29% being lost ball (from Play by Play data)
