4.) Raymond Felton Minutes Played

After having a disappointing season last year, Felton came into this season looking to prove to Dallas that he is a different player when healthy. This season, Raymond Felton finished with the third most minutes played for the Mavericks.

Nobody would have predicted that with all of the offseason additions, along with the four point guard rotation, that Felton would have played the third most minutes of ALL Mavericks players on the season.

The only two players ahead of Felton (2192) in minutes played was Nowitzki (2364) and Matthews (2644). Obviously, injuries played into this statistic, but you still would not have imagined that Felton would have finished the season with more minutes than Parsons and Williams. Many people considered him the third backup point guard behind Barea and Harris.

Felton had an incredible season in which he proved to the Mavericks his worth and probably to the rest of the league his value on the free agent market this summer.
