O.J. Mayo Primary Shot Creator 38.0 High 18.5 3.8 3.2 1.3 13.4 Operated as the team’s main perimeter creator as a rookie, handling heavy minutes and shot volume; notable for advanced shooting polish and late-game responsibilities uncommon for a first-year guard. ROY-2 (2009)
Marc Gasol Interior Anchor / Connector Big 30.7 Medium 11.9 7.4 1.7 1.9 11.45 Functioned as a stabilizing interior presence with strong positional defense and passing feel; his screen-setting and rim protection quietly elevated the team’s half-court efficiency. ROY-8 (2009)
Mike Conley Lead Guard / Tempo Controller 30.6 Medium 10.9 3.4 4.3 1.2 9.9 Gradually assumed more control of the offense, balancing playmaking with improved shooting efficiency; key in organizing lineups featuring multiple young scorers.
