Last Season – 49% FG 77% FT 14.4 Pts 5.1 Rebs 1.2 Stls in 31 Mins
ESPN Fantasy Projection – 13.4 Pts 4.1 Rebs 1.2 Stls in 28 Mins

ESPN diminished his projected value a little due to the addition of Josh Jackson but any fan knows the two can play together, and based off of Warren’s 2016-17 season before the head injury, he can do even better.

Reasonable Projection – 51% FG 75% FT (Career Averages) 14.7 Pts 5.1 Rebs 1.2 Stls in 30 Mins
Goal – 53% FG 77% FT 16.2 Pts 5.5 Rebs 1.5 Stls in 30 Mins
Middle Ground – 52% FG 76% FT 15.5 Pts 5.3 Rebs 1.3 Stls in 30 Mins

Post All Star Break, T.J. averaged 17.6 Pts 7.7 Rebs. If he can stay healthy, there is plenty of room for him to grow and even stardom is reachable.

Stretch – 54% FG 77% FT 16.9 Pts 6.6 Rebs 1.5 Stls
