From the episode

Mike Evans was playing more in the slot than I anticipated. Like, I think it was like a 36% slot rate or something like that. And then he finished the game closer to like 15, 17%.

STACKED’s take

NeutralUsage

Evans saw an uncharacteristic slot usage rate early in the game.

Mike Evans played more in the slot than anticipated (36% rate early, finishing around 15-17%), which is atypical for his historical usage; this shift was likely intended to create advantageous matchups, but the injury to Stribbling may limit the team's offensive versatility.
