Parsons, 28, has been limited by right knee injuries in each of the last two seasons. But he played extremely well after the All-Star break, and check this out (via Rotoworld): Only three of the 100 players with at least 30 minutes per game had a better true shooting percentage than Parsons did during that time -- Stephen Curry, Hassan Whiteside and DeAndre Jordan.
Parsons averaged 13.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 29.5 minutes per game for the Mavericks last year. He also shot a career-best 41.4 percent from three-point distance.
