Rookie and Notable Second/Third-Year Player Statlines, "Week" 3 (11/30 a Fairly Humorous if I Do Say So Myself Edition)

As my prior thread has been pushed off the front page by Navicular's excellent post on Jah, I am posting a new thread. Please rec so people can find this thread until I make a new one in a week. Again, I report on all first-round-pick rookies, second-rounders and undrafted and international rookies who people care about, like the McCaws of the world (tell me if I'm missing someone) or who I think are interesting or who have notable games, and second/third-year players along the same lines. (Which means that sometimes I will not post a Jarrell Martin line, and sometimes will when he does interesting things.) I do not post Towns's stats because the purpose of this thread is to check in on young players whose futures remain uncertain (this includes Porzingis and Wiggins), not to report on certified all-star big men who happen to be second-year players. I also don't do Sixers. I attempt to roughly rank rookie and second/third-year player lines in order of quality. Please advise if you want me to start including the following players, who I have intentionally excluded except when they do notable things:

McDermott, Malcolm Delaney, Mirotic (Mirotic seems like a completely known quantity to me at this point), Mindaugas Kuzminskas, Ron Baker, Rodney McGruder, Bjelica, Andrew Harrison.

In the meantime while you wait for new statlines later tonight, here are rookie advanced stats:
