Branden Carlson is a significant weakness this season — BIS 32 places him bottom quartile of the league
—OKC
Executive Summary
Branden Carlson is a player for the Thunder, ranking in the 27th percentile league-wide by Baseline Impact Score (32). In 11 minutes per game across 36 starts, Branden produces 4.7/2.6/0.6 (pts/reb/ast).
Current Form & Trajectory
Live Form Index: 50 — below-average recent performance, ranking below league average.
Scoring & Shot Profile
His playmaking efficiency (PEM 30) is a limitation — his value is context-dependent and drops when the supporting cast changes. The three-point shot at 33.9% is functional but inconsistent. Defenses will go under screens and sag off, limiting his ability to collapse the defense as a primary ballhandler.
Off-Ball Value
Gravity & Off-Ball Impact (GOI 39) ranks below league average among players.
The Verdict
Branden is a significant weakness this season. At BIS 32 (bottom quartile of the league), the production doesn't justify significant minutes on a competitive team. Either a role change or major skill development is needed to remain in the rotation.
