Miami Heat: Most Important Stat For Gabe Vincent In The 2022-23 NBA Season
Gabe Vincent could be one of the key developmental talents that helps keep the Miami Heat contending. He’ll surely be a huge part of it all, at the very least.
How will he go about doing that though? Well, there’s more there than just one stat can say, but here’s the most important one for Vincent heading into the season.
Gabe Vincent’s Most Important Stat Heading Into 2022-23: Bonus Wins
Projection: League Leader Or Near Top
Bonus Wins are a stat developed by Truehoop. Basically, it looks at how much a player contributes compared to how much they are being paid.
This is important for Vincent because he is on such a team-friendly contract of only $1.8 million this upcoming year.
Putting bonus wins in its simplest context, one win last season was worth about $3.35 million. Gabe contributed 2.7 estimated wins last season per Dunksandthrees.com, but he was only paid for about 0.5 wins for all of last year.
That’s 2.2 bonus wins for Gabe. To put that into context, the league MVP, Nikola Jokic, had just over 11 bonus wins.
