Overall 2016-2017: Grade- B

I think Tyreke Evans earned a B for time with the Sacramento Kings.  When he first came over, Evans was in rhythm and played impressively well in those first seven games.  In those games, he averaged 15.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.7 blocks.  As the resting grew more and more frequently, it was difficult for Evans to find his game and it clearly affected his numbers.

I think Evans versatility, playmaking ability, and defense are an asset to any NBA squad.   The Sacramento Kings were no different this season.  He earns a B despite his limited minutes and games with the Sacramento Kings this season.
