C Rose

Career résumé: Season 1 Never Daunted.

C Rose delivered one of Season 1's cleanest six-game profiles: a 4-2 record, 14.3 points, 3.5 assists and 2.5 steals while shooting 71% overall and 67% from three. He offered more secondary playmaking than most SFs and paired the box-score activity with efficient, low-mistake offense.

The limitation is résumé depth. He did not play SF in the postseason, so there is no playoff assignment record to test the regular-season impact against bracket-level point guards. That absence matters when several players below accumulated much larger or more difficult samples.

Why not higher: Six games and no playoff SF evidence cannot outweigh the fuller careers above him.

Why not lower: His offense, creation, steals, winning and efficiency were too complete to place behind more one-dimensional candidates.
