Mike Conley is having one of his best statistical seasons in his career, and a key reason why Utah has been plowing over opponents this season. Conley is currently averaging 16.4 points and 5.6 assists per game while shooting 41 percent from three and shooting 6.7 threes a game (both career-highs). His effective field goal percentage is 56 percent (also a career-high).

There are only five players in the league that is taking more than 6.5 3’s a game while shooting above 40 percent from 3: Steph Curry, Zach Lavine, Gary Trent Jr, Terry Rozier and Mike Conley. One is an MVP, one is an All Star, and the other two are extremely good players that have nowhere near the usage and responsibility that Conley has.

Looking closer into the numbers, Mike Conley has proven to be one of the best in the game in the pick and roll. This season, as the primary pick-and-roll ball-handler, Mike Conley is scoring 1.05 points per possession (PPP) with an effective field goal percentage of 57 percent – that would put him in the 84th percentile in the league – the same as All Star Luka Doncic. Conley is behind James Harden (96th percentile – OMG!) and Damian Lillard (88th percentile) in this category, but is ahead of guys like Trae Young (81st percentile), Paul George (79th percentile), and Chris Paul (66th percentile).
