|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gary Payton | Starter/Star [1.1] | 40.3 | High [1.2] | 22.1 | 4.8 | 9.0 | 1.9 | 99.26 | Payton authored one of the finest seasons of his prime, steering Seattle with 22.1 points and a league-controlling 9.0 assists per game. He dictated tempo from the opening tip, bullying smaller guards in the post and carving up defenses with surgical pick-and-roll reads. Defensively, his 1.6 steals only hinted at the nightly pressure he applied at the point of attack. Finishing sixth in MVP voting while earning All-NBA and All-Defensive honors in 2001-02 underscored how fully he carried the franchise on both ends. | All-Star (2002), All-NBA Second Team (2002), All-Defensive First Team (2002), 6th in MVP voting (2002) |
| Brent Barry | Starter/Star [1.1] | 37.5 | Medium [1.1] | 14.4 | 5.4 | 5.3 | 2.3 | 66.36 | Barry delivered a career-defining blend of efficiency and versatility, shooting 50.8 percent from the field and a scorching 42.4 percent from three. Operating as a secondary playmaker, he averaged 5.3 assists while also generating 1.8 steals per game with anticipatory defense. His .611 effective field goal percentage reflected pristine shot selection, and his ability to toggle between on-ball creation and off-ball spacing made Seattle’s offense hum with balance. | |
| Rashard Lewis | Starter/Star [1.1] | 36.4 | High [1.2] | 16.8 | 7.0 | 1.7 | 2.1 | 72.86 | At just 22, Lewis took another leap, pairing 16.8 points with 7.0 rebounds while stretching the floor at nearly 39 percent from deep. His length disrupted passing lanes—1.5 steals per game—and his 0.6 blocks added weak-side resistance. Often slotted between wing and forward, he punished mismatches with a high release and smooth straight-line drives, giving Seattle a modern, multi-positional scorer before the term became commonplace. | |
| Desmond Mason | Key Contributor [1.05] | 32.3 | Medium [1.1] | 12.4 | 4.7 | 1.4 | 1.3 | 45.81 | Mason’s game was built on explosion and force. He averaged 12.4 points largely inside the arc, attacking seams and finishing above traffic. His athletic rebounding—4.7 per game—and defensive activity injected pace into the Sonics’ rotation. Finishing fifth in Sixth Man of the Year voting in 2002, he gave Seattle a jolt of verticality that contrasted sharply with the team’s perimeter finesse. | 5th in Sixth Man of the Year voting (2002) |
| Vin Baker | Key Contributor [1.05] | 31.1 | Medium [1.1] | 14.1 | 6.4 | 1.3 | 1.1 | 52.75 | Baker provided interior scoring touch and veteran presence, averaging 14.1 points on efficient finishing around the rim. His 6.4 rebounds steadied the frontcourt, and he served as a post option when perimeter actions stalled. Though no longer at his All-Star peak, his ability to score with his back to the basket added structural diversity to a guard-oriented offense. | |
| Vladimir Radmanović | Key Contributor [1.05] | 20.2 | Low [1.0] | 6.7 | 3.8 | 1.3 | 1.3 | 27.09 | Radmanović flashed stretch potential, drilling 42.0 percent from three and spacing the floor from the power forward slot. His 6.7 points in 20 minutes hinted at scalable scoring, and his willingness to defend multiple positions made him a flexible chess piece in George Karl’s rotation. | |
| Predrag Drobnjak | Key Contributor [1.05] | 18.3 | Low [1.0] | 6.8 | 3.4 | 0.8 | 0.8 | 24.78 | Drobnjak offered steady interior minutes, scoring 6.8 points per game with soft touch around the basket. He operated primarily as a finisher and midrange option, complementing the team’s perimeter threats without demanding heavy usage. | |
| Jerome James | Key Contributor [1.05] | 16.9 | Low [1.0] | 5.3 | 4.1 | 0.4 | 1.9 | 24.99 | James’ 1.5 blocks per game in limited minutes gave Seattle real rim protection. He thrived as a vertical presence—rolling hard, contesting shots, and anchoring second-unit defense. His offensive role was narrow, but defensively he changed geometry inside. | |
| Calvin Booth | Key Contributor [1.05] | 18.6 | Low [1.0] | 6.2 | 3.6 | 1.1 | 1.3 | 25.41 | Booth started 15 games and supplied length and timing in the paint. Nearly a block per game, he specialized in help-side contests and verticality, while his near-perfect free-throw shooting reflected surprising polish for a defensive-minded center. | |
| Earl Watson | Bench [1.0] | 15.1 | Low [1.0] | 3.6 | 1.3 | 2.0 | 1.0 | 15.80 | As a rookie, Watson brought energy and ball pressure off the bench. His 0.9 steals per game signaled defensive promise, and he showed comfort initiating offense in short stretches. The scoring was modest, but the tempo he injected was noticeable. | |
| Art Long | Key Contributor [1.05] | 15.7 | Low [1.0] | 4.5 | 4.0 | 0.7 | 0.7 | 20.37 | Long carved out minutes with toughness on the glass, pulling down four rebounds per game in under 16 minutes. His contributions were gritty rather than glamorous, reinforcing second-chance battles and interior defense. | |
| Ansu Sesay | Bench [1.0] | 15.8 | Low [1.0] | 6.4 | 2.2 | 0.9 | 0.5 | 20.00 | In a brief nine-game stint, Sesay scored efficiently at 50 percent from the field, slashing decisively and finishing through contact. The sample was small, but his assertiveness stood out in limited opportunity. | |
| Shammond Williams | Bench [1.0] | 12.1 | Low [1.0] | 4.4 | 1.3 | 1.7 | 0.4 | 15.60 | Williams supplied perimeter shooting at 37.3 percent from deep, spacing the floor in reserve guard minutes. His role centered on quick-trigger threes and secondary ball-handling. | |
| Randy Livingston | Bench [1.0] | 13.5 | Low [1.0] | 3.2 | 1.9 | 2.0 | 0.9 | 16.00 | Livingston offered veteran composure in spot duty, facilitating offense with simple reads and adding defensive hands in passing lanes. Efficiency eluded him, but steadiness did not. | |
| Olumide Oyedeji | Bench [1.0] | 6.1 | Low [1.0] | 1.5 | 2.2 | 0.1 | 0.2 | 8.00 | Oyedeji’s minutes were developmental, focused on interior positioning and rebounding fundamentals. His role was limited to short frontcourt spells. | |
| Antonio Harvey | Bench [1.0] | 9.4 | Low [1.0] | 1.8 | 1.8 | 1.0 | 0.8 | 10.80 | Harvey appeared briefly, providing depth at forward with modest rebounding and defensive contributions in five games. | |
| TEAM TOTALS | 97.7 | 40.3 | 23.5 | 12.9 | The 2001-02 SuperSonics blended Payton’s MVP-caliber command with Barry’s efficiency and Lewis’ emerging two-way versatility. Offensively, the club leaned on elite guard play and floor spacing, while interior rotations—Baker, James, Booth—supplied enough rim presence to support an up-tempo, perimeter-driven identity. |
