eVert didn't have an opening statement so much as a sustained one. He moved the curve by inches in the first quarter — a clean look here, a contested stop there — and let the game come to him.
The fourth quarter is where it broke open — levert free throw 1 of 2 (5 pts) (+1.9). From that possession on, the curve never had to be rebuilt the same way twice.
The fourth was control. LeVert closed at -6.2 without needing a final flourish to get there.
