McDaniels in rare company with Julius Erving


by - Assoc. Editor -

Former Clemson standout K.J. McDaniels is showing tremendous potential in his rookie campaign with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Check out some of his stats in his first 16 NBA games to see why.

For NBA rookies, McDaniels is sixth in minutes (24.0), third in points (10.2), ninth in rebounds (3.2) and tied with the most blocks (1.3).

For any NBA player 6-6 or shorter who has averaged at least 20 minutes per game, McDaniels has blocked more shots (1.9 BPG averaged for 36 min of action) of anyone his height since legendary baller Julius Erving in the 1983 season.
