1.15 points of Branson for the clutch were larger than Jokich (1) and Edwards (0.98), and led the league for everyone who played more than 13.1 minutes of clutch.
Brunns fired 51.5% from the field in clutch, which was drawn to 56.2% of Jokich’s success, but was ahead of 46.2% of Edwards. Djokich finished the second in the league in clutches (36), and Branson finished the third (28). Trail Young led the league with the 37th clutch, while Edwards had 28th place from 13 from 13.
Yokich (50) and Edwards (45) took third and fourth place in the general hodgepodge of the clutch, while 11 Brunns did not become the best 100. But the clutch, in this case, was more related to the result of production than something else, and the efforts of Branson on this front for the Knicks team, which finished the third in the eastern conference, forced its award.
