With the season being roughly one-tenth of the way through, I figured we could do a check-in on the two of the major offseason acquisitions, Bogdan Bogdanovic and Marcus Smart, who were signed to contracts paying them $3,524,115 and $6,064,00…
Holly Sturm evaluates Houston Rockets offseason acquisitions Marcus Smart and Bogdan Bogdanovic roughly one-tenth into the season. Smart, earning $6,064,000, is averaging 9.8 points, 2.5 assists, and 1.3 steals while shooting 38.7% from three-point range. Meanwhile, Bogdanovic is playing on a $3,524,115 contract and contributing 5.6 points per game while shooting 45.5% from beyond the arc to provide perimeter spacing.
The writer argues both veterans add leadership and lineup flexibility to support Houston's young core, including Reed Sheppard. Sturm awards an 'A' grade to the Bogdanovic acquisition and an 'A-' to Smart, noting Smart's slight deduction is solely due to missed time with an injury.
