E’Twaun Moore, New Orleans Pelicans

E’Twaun Moore couldn’t seem to find a home throughout the beginning of his career. Fortunately, he’s found one in New Orleans as their go-to role player. Moore has shown multiple times this season that even as a fourth or fifth option on a so-so team, he can make a serious difference in the outcome of a game.

Specifically, Moore has been known to blow up in halves for the Pelicans.

Averaging career highs in about every category that is important for an offensive guard: Point per game, field goal percentage, 3-point percentage, and free throw percentage. His teammates often finds him open on the perimeter, as he is tied with Stephen Curry for 42% from the 3-point line.
