Regular Season: 11.5 PPG | 1.5 RPG | 1.2 APG | 2.0 SPG | 81% FG | 73% 3PT | 4-2 Record

hseelow quietly had one of the most efficient offensive seasons of any backend in the league. He averaged 11.5 points per game while shooting an incredible 81% from the field and 73% from three, all while facing one of the tougher schedules at the position with multiple games against top-four teams. His defensive activity also stood out, averaging 2.0 steals per game during the regular season. In the playoffs, he remained an efficient floor spacer and elevated his defensive production to 2.5 steals per game, but his team's first-round exit prevented him from climbing higher in the rankings.

Why He's Ranked #8

Few backends matched hseelow's offensive efficiency throughout the season. He consistently knocked down open shots, created turnovers on defense, and proved his game translated into the playoffs, making him one of the league's most reliable role players.

Why Not Higher

The players ahead of him either contributed more in other areas, played larger overall roles, or advanced further in the playoffs. While hseelow remained efficient, his limited rebounding and his team's early playoff exit kept him just outside the top tier of backends.

Why Not Lower

Splurge and the players behind him had solid seasons, but none combined elite efficiency with the same level of defensive playmaking. hseelow maintained his identity throughout both the regular season and playoffs, giving him the edge for the No. 8 spot.
