Adams is putting up a statline of 13.8 points and 9.0 rebounds while securing 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks per game. The crazy bits of his statline are yet to come, though: Adams is 4th in the league in field-goal percentage at 62.7%, while his offensive rebounding percentage of 16.4% is second only to former teammate Enes Kanter in the NBA.

Adams grabs 5.1 offensive boards a game - tied for the best figure in the NBA with Andre Drummond. Adams is a 7', 265-pound beast built sturdily enough to shake up the likes of LeBron James with his rock-like physique on hard screens.
Without Adams, the net rating of the Thunder falls from a spectacular 4.7 points per 100 possessions to a miserly -0.4 points per 100.
