[autotag]Blake Wesley[/autotag] finished a trying rookie season with the San Antonio Spurs with a couple of decent performances. He scored 14 points April 8 against the Minnesota Timberwolves and came within one assist of a double-double while scoring 10 in the April 9 season finale against the Dallas Mavericks. His final week saw him average 6.5 points and 4.0 assists a game while shooting 35.5% from the field. Those were above his final season averages of 5.0 points and 2.7 assists on 32.1% shooting over 37 games.
[autotag]Pat Connaughton[/autotag] sprained his ankle April 4 against the Washington Wizards and didn’t play for the rest of the week. During a season in which he made a career-high 33 starts out of 61 games played, the Milwaukee Bucks guard averaged 7.6 points and 4.6 rebounds a game while putting together a shooting slash line of .392/.339/.659. His field-goal percentages were the lowest they’ve been since his rookie year, but at the moment, that’s far less important to him than getting healthy enough to help the Bucks win their second championship in three years.
