"Despite coach Darko Rajakovic's strong belief in his potential, it often seemed like Dick's spot with the Raptors was just barely hanging on. In the six games he played last month, Dick averaged about 14.7 minutes per game. His stats during that time were 7.0 points per game, with a shooting percentage of 36.4 percent from the field, 29.4 percent from three, along with 2.3 rebounds and 0.3 assists."
"November has been especially gracious to the Raptors, where they've gone 7-1 so far at the time of writing. In this positive stretch, Dick is proving to be of great help to their efforts. Dick's on-court run is up slightly to 18.3 minutes per game, but he's making the most of those limited minutes. He's improved his efficiency, averaging 47.8 percent from the field and a solid 40.0 percent from beyond the arc."
"Dick currently holds a net rating of +17.3, which is second-highest on the team just behind fellow sniper Jamison Battle, who has a net rating of +33.0. But bearing Battle's struggle to secure significant minutes in mind, I think it'd be fair to give that crown to Dick, seeing as he's an impactful rotation player on a nightly basis. In fact, this +17.3 net rating puts Dick in the top 10 across the entire NBA, where he ranks eighth in the league."
Gradey Dick struggled in October, averaging 14.7 minutes, 7.0 points, 36.4% shooting, 29.4% from three, 2.3 rebounds and 0.3 assists across six games.

Advanced metrics show a +17.3 net rating, placing him eighth leaguewide and second on the team behind Jamison Battle. Dick also ranks sixth in the NBA in defensive rating at 102.1 and has the lowest turnover ratio on the Raptors.
