Player FG% 3P% FT% TRB AST STL BLK PTS
Victor Oladipo .417 .323 .789 4.2 4.2 1.6 0.5 14.2
Michael Carter-Williams .399 .256 .692 6.1 6.3 1.9 0.6 16.7
Trey Burke .378 .334 .890 2.9 5.3 0.6 0.1 12.4

MCW has been the only bright spot this season for the 76ers, who have the second-worst record in the league. He leads all rookies in points, rebounds, assists, steals and double-doubles. Oladipo has had a solid rookie season and has proved he will be one of the Magic’s building blocks going forward at either point guard or shooting guard. He’s scored at least 16 points in each of the last four games. Burke has failed to reach double digits in three of the past five games and has shot 31 percent over the course of those games.
