That’s awesome. Elijah just put up some great numbers in AU

I’m not quite sure how the Australian leagues work. Eli had a solid first year with the Perth Wildcats on the NBL; now he’s averaging nearly 50 (yes, 50) with a team out of Warwick in the NBL1 which sounds like a semi-pro league- maybe similar to the NBA summer league? His minutes and numbers dropped quite a bit the last few games of the Perth season with minutes going from the 20s down to below 10.

Wow...49.7 ppg...that's astonishing!

1. Elijah Pepper (Warwick Senators)‍

Pepper stands out not just as the league’s top scorer with an astronomical 49.75 points per game, but also as the most complete offensive threat. He shoots 54% from the field, makes nearly 9 threes per game, and gets to the line frequently — converting at an 89% clip. Beyond scoring, Pepper contributes across the board with 6.5 assists and 6.25 rebounds per game while keeping turnovers and fouls relatively low. His exceptional blend of volume, efficiency, and playmaking gives him the highest Impact Score by a significant margin.

very similar to my high school scoring average…..if you slide that decimal point one over to the left.
