Scouting report

Backcourt analysis

Rated 69, Jaden McDaniels is a deep-bench small forward whose value in Backcourt is roster cover rather than regular minutes.

His best fit is the Glue guy role, which does the defensive and rebounding work that never shows up as points. His defense (78), rebounding (71) and basketball IQ (67) are exactly what that role asks for, and the game rates the match as “Suits him”.

For a small forward, his standout attributes are defense (78) and rebounding (71), in the top 14% and 23% of small forwards respectively.

Plan his minutes around matchups and blowouts rather than a fixed nightly share.

At 25 he still has room to grow toward a potential of 73.

He earns $23.0M a season with a transfer value of $57.9M — expensive for what he delivers.
