    In this post, I compare Landry to other reserves by various metrics including points/min, TS%, WS, PER, and 4th quarter scoring. It turns out that he dominates across all these categories.

    Explanations in the link above, but a few scatter plots to summarize what I found graphically:

    He plays for the Suns. A quick glance at his game logs indicate he's played 56 of his 71 minutes in the fourth quarter, and generally in blow-outs. In other words, he's a garbage time player. But he's still scored 41 points in his 4th quarter time. Because of his lack of minutes, the size of his name is set to 8-point font, but he has scored at an impressive clip.

    I'd like to this he got those 4th quarter stats from my post, but I'm sure he's got his own resources. :)
