Usman Garuba · Usman Garuba was so dialed in from downtown to start the 2022-23 season that he didn’t miss one for almost a month. The second-year Houston Rockets forward made his first two attempts in October before misfiring one during his first November contest. Garuba then converted his next five in a row, including when the Dallas Mavericks made the mistake of leaving him wide open from atop the key. The 6-foot-8 Spaniard made all five of his field goals — including both from beyond the arc — for 12 points, nine rebounds, three assists and three blocks in Houston’s 101-92 win on November 16, 2022 as his 3-point percentage jumped from .250 as a rookie to .407 in year two. · State of Mint
