Mirza Teletovic nets 22 points in Suns' finale

Phoenix Suns forward Mirza Teletovic came off the bench for 22 points, nine rebounds, two assists and two 3-pointers on Wednesday, making 8-of-19 field goals and all four free throws in 28 minutes.

What It Means:

Teletovic is thriving in an expanded role under Suns' coach Earl Watson. He finished the season with 20-plus points in four straight games, and he scored 10-plus in a dozen straight, with both streaks setting new career highs. As an unrestricted free agent, his fantasy appeal hinges largely on his whereabouts next season, but at the very least, he's on the radar as a 3-point specialist.

Teletovic earned an 1.3 nERD this season, ranking 67th in the league. He averaged 12.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 2.3 3-pointers per game on a career-high 57.1 True Shooting Percentage.
