In response to PennFan10
Individual DRAT stats are poor indicators. I think even Mike James would admit that they reflect more on the team effort as opposed to the individual's effort.
The pattern with both Jackson and Sam is if they get in a game and jack up that 26 foot clanger within seconds, they are headed to the bench. If it goes in (a rarity) - well that's a different story. If they find their shots within the flow of the offense, they are far more successful and often help the team and stay on the court longer.
Having said that, neither plays very good defense so those shots better fall. Further - Caleb Wood is actually a pretty decent defender who can easily become an above average defender and does what they do well even better. so IMHO, the coach is utilizing all three appropriately. What obviously impacts PT in individual games is our foul situation. If Ryan picks up two quick ones, PT for role players at the wing position expands. Complicating matters is Eddie Scott's role when he's healthy, although I think he is better suited as a 3/4 than Sam is and impacts Sam's PT more than Jackson's.
