Current Rating: 62 He's been really good this year. Deserves an increase. His PER is 24.1, good for 14th in the league among qualified players. His TS% is 20th in the league at .609. And that's with a 30.6 USG%. Of course, there's the context that's he's been playing with the 2nd unit in LA (as he will in HOU), so his numbers may be inflated by playing against worse competition. But his advanced plus-minus numbers should reveal that. His BPM is 2.5, not top 20 like his box-score stats, but still very good. His RPM is 2.42, which ranks 39th in the league.

Here's a decent explanation of how APMs, which RPM is an advanced version of, take into account the other players on the court. BPM is a box-score stat that's determined by regressing stats against an APM. So if the box-score stats in some way reflect the effects of the other players on the court, that should be shown in BPM.
