On the other side of his prime, Magic took his game to the next level. As a result, the L.A. great averaged over .250 win shares per 48 for the very first time, tallying .251 over the length of a game.

His total of 15.4 win shares ranks fourth over the course of his career. His 8.3 box plus-minus is also his fourth-best, including an offensive mark of 7.1. That's based off averages of 19.4 points, 12.5 assists and 7.0 rebounds in 37.1 minutes a game over a count of 79 games. Per the usual, Johnson went to his 11th All-Star game and was selected as a First-Team All-Pro for the 10th time in his career.
