    Well, since we have some thinking time before the next NBA game, I researched some rare stats that some players put up. 

    Here they are:

    John Wall is the 3rd rookie to average 16+pts, 8+apg.  He is the youngest ever to do so at the age of 20.  The other two:  Oscar Robertson (22yrs) and Damon Stoudemire (22yrs).

    Dwight Howard is the 5th player to average 22+ppg, 14+rpg, 2+bpg.  He is the only player to do it while shooting 55%+ from the field.  The other 4:  Kareem Abdul Jabbar (3x), Bob McAdoo (2x), Moses Malone and Hakeem Olajuwon, each once.

    Amar’e Stoudemire is the 4th Knick to average 25+ppg and 8+rpg.  The other 3:  Bob McAdoo (3x), Patrick Ewing (2x), Willie Naulls, once.

    Brandon Jennings is the 2nd player to average 15+ppg and shot under 39% from the field in each of his first two season.  The first:  Maurice Stokes, 53 years ago.

    Derrick Rose is the 2nd youngest player to average 25+ppg and 7.5apg.  The youngest: Oscar Roberston (22yrs)

    Blake Griffin is the 4th rookie under the age of 22 to average 22+ppg and 12+rpg.  He is the 2nd youngest to do so.  The other 3:  Shaquille O’Neal (20yrs), Kareem Abdul Jabbar (22yrs), Walt Bellamy (22yrs)

    Tyson Chandler is the 2nd player to have a 69%+ true shooting percentage (69.7%)  The other:  Artis Gilmore, twice (70.2% and 69.9%)

    Nene is the 4th player, 2nd youngest, to shoot over 61% from the field while scoring 14+ppg.  The other 3:  Artis Gilmore (6x, youngest 31yrs), Wilt Chamberlain (2x, youngest 30yrs), and Dwight Howard (1x, 24 yrs)

    DeMarcus Cousins is the 3rd player to average 4+fouls and 3+turnovers a game while playing less than 30 minutes.  Also the youngest of the 3 and the only player to do so while shooting under 55% from the field (43% FG)  The other 3:  Steve Johnson (29yrs and 55% FG) and Darryl Dawkins (26yrs and 59.9% FG)

    Ray Allen (35yrs) and Stephen Curry (22yrs) are the oldest and youngest, respectively, players to make over 150 3PT shots a season while shooting over 44% from 3.

    John Wall is going to be a scary PG. I can see this guy being a 20 and 10 PG.
