Gary Trent Jr.

SG, Portland Trail Blazers

Gary Trent Jr. was fantastic off the bench on Thursday night, heating up for 27 points on 10-of-15 shooting from the field, 7-of-10 from deep, adding three rebounds, four assists and two steals.

Trent has been a fantastic pickup in restart leagues all over, scoring 20-plus points in two of his last four games. He also led the team in the +/- column at a stellar plus-19. He's emerged as the team's go-to scorer off the bench lately and it looks like he's done enough to carve it in stone. He's someone to look to make a significant leap in 2019-20.
