At this moment, the only thing worth arguing about for Onuaku is how he's not playing more minutes. He's
got the No. 1 PER in the league, the No. 1 rebounding percentage and the No. 1 offensive rebounding percentage. Ball goes up. Ball comes down. Ball ends up in Arinze Onuaku's hands. Aaaaaand then the hoop. He has a higher PER (27.79) than Chris Douglas-Roberts and Jarvis Varnado, who, you'll remember, ransacked the league on the way to the NBA. For a short refresher on PER -- and its ability to predict Call-Ups --check out our AP Hoops piece here. For the original explanation, consult John Hollinger's manifesto.
And while you're doing it, note that Onuaku's
PER of 27.79 is 28 percent higher than any other Prospect with more than 300 minutes in the NBA D-League this year.
