Underperformer: Mario Herzonja, Orlando Magic
Orlando Magic swingman Mario Herzonja is having a rough time in his third season in the NBA. Hezonja is averaging 9.0 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game this season, but it’s come with quite a few challenges in the past month.
In 25.6 minutes per game, he’s generating a plus/minus score of -6.9 in March. His offensive rating of 92.7 and defensive rating of 108.1 has earned him a net rating of -15.4 through nine games for Orlando.
After averaging 15.5 points and 5.0 rebounds in February, his average is down to 8.8 points and 3.7 rebounds per game in March. Orlando is currently 3-6 in March with a 21-49 record.
