Jared Ruiz PPG: 18.5 RPG: 7.0 APG: 5.0 SPG: 2.5 PFP: 40 Ruiz is an all-around player who has spearheaded the gutsy Nicaragua campaign so far. He has been able to exert a lot of influence on both ends of the floor and will be a headache for the Chile defense. Jared compiled 14 points, 7 assists, and 4 rebounds versus Bolivia. Ruiz is one of the candidates for Super-Player in the Dream11 Basketball Fantasy scenario.
Sebastian Suarez PPG: 19.0 RPG: 3.5 PFP: 28 Sebastian is a sharpshooter who has led the Chilean effort so far and has shown that experience can indeed become a key at many junctures. The 30-year-old has been efficient from beyond the arc, shooting 50% from there. He collected 22 points and 6 rebounds versus Paraguay.
Norchad Omier PPG: 15.5 RPG: 12.5 BPG: 1.5 SPG: 1.0 PFP: 30 Omier has been on fire so far and he has scored inside, from mid-range and has also popped some threes. However, it is the rebounding and the defensive end where he has flexed his muscles. The 6’9″ player came up with 11 points and 12 rebounds versus Bolivia.
Franco Morales PPG: 10.5 APG: 4.0 RPG: 3.5 SPG: 1.0 PFP: 30 Morales is one of the most talented players in the Chile team and has a sharp all-around game at the guard position. He has been consistent in terms of doing his duty but was shut down on the offensive end by the Paraguay defense, limiting him to 6 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists on 1/8 shooting.
Francisco Garth PPG: 11.5 RPG: 7.0 SPG: 1.0 BPG: 1.0 PFP: 24 The 22-year-old is the type of player who likes to put up shots whether they are on a streak or not. He has a lot to learn but his effective game and athleticism are always a bonus. He piled up 18 points and 8 rebounds against Bolivia.
Ignacio Arroyo PPG: 13.0 RPG: 5.0 PFP: 20 The 6’1″ guard is just 21 years old and as a bench player, he has played a huge hand in the first two victories by Chile. The youngster is an impressive shooter and scooped up 11 points and 4 rebounds against Paraguay.
Sebastian Herrera had 9 points and 5 assists versus Paraguay. Farrell Pauth had 11 points and 3 rebounds versus Bolivia.
