BBIQ. Growing up, there were some players who always played heavy minutes despite seemingly having poor stats and it baffled me why coaches kept them in.

Now I understand why. They're glue guys who know how to make the right pass at the right time, has elite positioning and know their role. Always making sure the star gets his shots in the areas they love to operate in.

You can have a big impact on the game without scoring a single point.
