Most humans, even the giants galloping about hardwood floors, look up at Marjanovic. That's true of his stature, sure, but now it's true of a certain statistic: Player Efficiency Rating (PER).
Through the first 17 days of December, all of the NBA is left looking up at the Spurs' titan.
It's an obviously misleading number. Marjanovic's PER — an all-in-one basketball rating, which attempts to boil down all of a player's contributions into a lone number — this month is 32.8.
The peerless Steph Curry is at 31.7; 2013-14 Most Valuable Player Kevin Durant, 30.8.
