CourtVision Scouting Report

Brooks Barnhizer is a significant weakness this season — BIS 18 places him among the weakest in the league

—OKCDefensive Liability

Executive Summary

Brooks Barnhizer is a player for the Thunder, ranking in the 12th percentile league-wide by Baseline Impact Score (18). In 8 minutes per game across 36 starts, Brooks produces 1.3/1.8/0.5 (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 29) is a limitation — his value is context-dependent and drops when the supporting cast changes. The 29.4% three-point clip is a real weakness. Teams leave Brooks open beyond the arc, which shrinks the floor for the entire offense. Improving this to even league-average (36%) would transform his offensive ceiling. The 38.0% field goal clip is concerning — either the shot diet is too difficult, or finishing/touch needs work. This inefficiency costs the offense roughly 0-0 points of production per game.

Defensive Scouting Report

Defensive Reality Score (DRS 24) ranks bottom quartile of the league among players. Defensive effort and ability are below average for a wing (DRS 24). Gets caught on screens, struggles in isolation against quicker guards, and provides minimal weak-side help. Improving lateral quickness and defensive effort would have an outsized impact on his overall value.

Off-Ball Value

Gravity & Off-Ball Impact (GOI 39) ranks below league average among players.

The Verdict

Brooks is a significant weakness this season. At BIS 18 (among the weakest in 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.

Projection

If Brooks's three-point shooting improves from 29% to league-average (36%), his BIS projects to jump from 18 to approximately 27.
