He has been at worst a 0.5ppg player for each of the last 4 seasons. As long as he can stay healthy (which has always been the biggest question) then he is at least a 40 point player.
He only regresses into a 30 point player again if he ends up running into injury issues again. The injury issues which have been the largest source of his inconsistencies.
