That’s four straight 20-burgers for T.J. Warren after his 0-point performance a little over a week ago. It’s going to take a while to undo the damage that was done to his scoring averages, but I believe that this can be the year he averages 20 for real. He was so close last year, but then he got shelved as the Suns entered full tank mode (which they were already in but it become FULLER with the removal of Teej).
He’s been receiving a little bit of national attention for improving his three-point shooting to really good levels, which is great to see. He’s been toiling in obscurity for his whole career, even though he just goes out there and puts the ball in the hole. I haven’t figured out what the problem is, where people don’t care about him, since I really like him a lot, but there’s no doubt a three-point shot makes any player more exciting. See: Lopez, Brook.
Maybe the Suns winning some games for once will raise his national profile. I’m looking at their schedule right now, and it looks like they’re on a 1-game winning-streak, as well as a 1-game winning-stream over playoff teams from last year.
