Javon Bess: Minimal output off bench
Bess had two points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and two rebounds over 19 minutes in Thursday's G League win against Long Island.
Bess had some effective, yet inconsistent, games to begin the calendar year, but his production has dropped significantly over the second half of February. While he's been inconsistent over most of the season, his recent cold limitations in usage could signal a shrinking role in the BayHawks' system. The 23-year-old is averaging 7.8 points and 2.8 rebounds per game this season.

The 23-year-old hasn't been particularly productive in other areas on the stat sheet, averaging 3.2 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game.

Bess had 17 points (6-14 FG, 5-12 3Pt, 0-1 FT), five assists, three rebounds, one steal and one block over 41 minutes in Saturday's G League win against Westchester.
Despite committing four fouls Saturday, Bess led the team in minutes as he recorded a double-digit point total for the first time since Nov. 17. Bess returned from an ankle injury Dec. 13, but his workload has slowly increased, and Saturday's performance is encouraging for his workload going forward.
