"5. Jeff Withey, Utah Jazz
2015-16 salary: $947,276
Win shares: 1.5
Dollar per win share: $631,517.33
The Utah Jazz couldn’t have expected Jeff Withey to play anything more than spot minutes for them when they signed him in late August, as Derrick Favors and Rudy Gobert figured to soak up a majority of their frontcourt minutes. When both Favors and Gobert went down for extended time, however—Favors with back spasms that have caused him to miss Utah’s past 10 games and Gobert with a Grade 2 MCL sprain that cost him 18 appearances—the Jazz had little choice but to turn to Withey as their fill-in starting center.
Despite coming into the 2015-16 campaign with just four starts to his name over his first two seasons, Withey shockingly held his own while filling in for the Gobert-Favors pairing. Over his eight starts in that stretch, he averaged 9.8 points on 51.8 percent shooting, 7.9 rebounds, 2.5 blocks, 1.3 steals and 1.0 assists in 26.7 minutes a night, helping Utah steal three victories over that stretch. Though his average plus/minus in those eight games was a minus-2.1, a minus-23 outing against the San Antonio Spurs badly skewed those figures.
