Melton is having a productive year for Golden State.
He is averaging 12.7 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.6 steals per contest while shooting 41.0% from the field and 28.4% from three-point range in 43 games.
That said, Melton has struggled as of late.

Great guy, great value on his contract. Looks uncomfortable and unconfident shooting right now”
