Hawkins Starting

Could not be more happy for him...he is loved by his team!

“He’s fearless,” Pelicans coach Willie Green said of Hawkins. “When he’s open he’s going to shoot it. He’s aggressive and the beauty of it is Brandon, Z, all of his teammates are looking for him.”
 
Jordan absolutely deserves this. He’s a rookie demanding the ball from guys like Zion Williamson, and the team already trusts him enough to listen. 31 points and 7 threes, wow!

I wish Zion would find a dietician and a trainer. Dude could be so good and Hawkins plays well off him. As it is now Zion and their center together are just way too slow.
 
His % numbers probably won't improve as he's going to be putting up a ton of shots. Good to get the experience but he may struggle.
When I read this I was thinking "if he can get his % to 36 or 37, he'll be fine". He did so in one game!
 
Hawk with 20 3 points made ties Laurie Maarkanen for most in first 7 games of career
 
Yeah I may have to take a major L on that prediction . . .
Hey, if I was so sure he would find the range so quickly I would have said so before the game. I'm just thrilled he did. I think his stat line has made me as happy as the UConn performance last night.

Zion out again tonight and Herb Jones is questionable. The rest of their guys are still out, too. So a lot of Hawk tonight for sure.
