The wait is over.
"Jean Patrick" is a European superstar.
NBA GMs tried to lure the fictional French 2-guard to the Association for a long time. Negotiating huge contracts. There are sponsorship deals. There are a lot of amenities. There is a rumor that Jean Patrick's services could be retained.
Patrick averaged 26.9 points per game last season. League Fantastique stars replicate their overseas statistics when they come to the NBA.
That's not the only thing. Patrick adds 26.9 points with 2.8 3s, 6.0 assists, 4.8 rebound, 1.4 steals, and 0.7 blocks. He shoots from the field 50.6% of the time. 92.2% came from the line.
Patrick's deep-dish statistics will make you salivate. I'm talking about a shooting percentage of 61.4. A player efficiency rating of 24.4%. If you were worried about Jean Patrick's handles, you should know that the usage rate is 30.4
Patrick is a force of nature. A champion. An international legend.
He is healthy. Rested. Ready. He's starting tonight.
What does this mean for fantasy managers? Should you pick him up?
I would like to know if your team could use top-15 overall Player Rater production at shooting guard. Yes, you could.
In Fantasyland? Patrick's arrival gives a blast of pure production power. Everyone in your league is asleep if Jean Patrick is still on your wire. Go get him. Buckle up.
There is one thing.
Jean Patrick does not play home games. Ever. It's what he's known for. Why? He has his reasons.
He told Steve Nash that he wouldn't play in Canada, but he still wants to play. Approximately 15 to 20 games of 30.0 PPG, 6.0 APG, 5.0RPG, and 3.0 3PG will be required.
Unless Patrick gets hurt. Or ends up in the COVID protocols. Both of them are possible. Patrick's injury history and unvaccinated make him a bad choice.
For 10 to 12 games. Patrick is going to be great in your lineup. You will look like the savviest manager in your league at those rare, precious moments.
Are you in a league that does weekly lineups? Relax. Patrick made your job easy.
Brooklyn will play two home and two away games next week. Unless he gets hurt or goes into the protocol, you will get two Jean Patrick games. Patrick's historic high-level production will probably make him a borderline start in standard-sized weekly leagues next week.
Patrick has five more away games. The Nets play seven out of nine games on the road in February. Unless he gets hurt or goes into the protocol, you are going to be loving Jean Patrick.
What about the home stretch? Patrick will be needed the most by fantasy teams. If you're in a head-to-head league and you plan on making some noise in the playoffs, what should you do?
Jean Patrick will help you with the plan.
Brooklyn plays five of its remaining 15 games on the road because it plays from March 13 through the end of the regular season on April 10. Jean Patrick will be a third of the time if you win.
You might be asking, "Is there a chance that Jean Patrick will change his mind?" Is it possible that he will reverse his no-home stance just in time to help his real-life team and my fantasy team?
I've been following Jean Patrick for a long time. Jean Patrick is marching to his drummer.
He has drawn a line in the sand on his no- home stance. If it comes down to keeping his reputation as one of the most volatile players on the planet and giving the Nets a late boost of sorely needed at- home help, what would it be like? Jean Patrick has a good reputation.
If all of this still sounds good to you?
Enjoy Irving.
