We’ve had prediction threads for W/L record and starting lineup, figured I would start a prediction thread for how many points do you think each player will average?

I’ll predict the following (rounded to whole #s):

Sanogo: 15 PPG
Hawkins: 12 PPG
Newton: 10 PPG
Jackson: 9 PPG
Alleyne: 8 PPG
Johnson: 6 PPG
Karaban: 5 PPG
Diarra: 5 PPG
Calcaterra: 3 PPG
Clingan: 3 PPG
Springs: 2 PPG
Hasson and Roumoglou: Under 1 PPG each

We averaged 75 PPG last year and assuming we play a little faster and have more shooters I’m predicting we average closer to 78-79 PPG this year.

I predict 75% of responses have us averaging 100+ points per game. Now for the guess:

Sanogo 15 ppg
Hawkins 13 ppg
Newton 11 ppg
Jackson 8 ppg
Alleyne 8 ppg
Karaban 7 ppg
Diarra 6 ppg
Johnson 6 ppg
Clingan 5 ppg
Calcaterra 4 ppg
Springs 2 ppg
Hasson / Romologou 0 ppg

That adds up to 85 ppg, I expect us to average high 70s, and Springs/Calcaterra won't get in every game so those numbers are inflated. For reference we averaged 75 ppg last year, but our 12 scholarship guys averaged 83 if you add them up

If Hawkins averages 12 ppg we are in trouble. He needs, i repeat NEEDS to average 15 and Sanogo 18-20 which is doable.

That assumes there are no injuries and ad we know that is very unlikely
 
I feel like I’m going to be way off, but:
Sanogo: 16
Newton: 14
Hawkins: 13
Jackson: 9
Alleyne: 7
Johnson: 5
Karaban: 5
Diarra: 5
Calcaterra: 3
Clingan: 2
Everybody else <1

I think Hawkins, Sanogo, and Jackson combine for 42-45ppg. Something along the lines of Sanogo 17, Hawkins 15, and AJax at 10-12. Newton is the wild card, if he is legit we’ll be a top 12 team. Everyone else will average 8 and below

We have much more depth this year that I’m not sure anyone will average close to 20 PPG.

Yea I think we will be looking at Hawkins averaging around 15.0 ppg or more.

I think Hawkins could average 15+ if he had to, and he’d easily be a first round NBA pick if he did. But the offense will run through Sanogo, and Newton is the PG.

Newton won’t average 17 a game again, playing with more offensive talent and against tougher competition, but him and Hawkins are sharing shots in the backcourt. Last year RJ/Sanogo/Tyrese were all between 13-16. Will probably be similar this year with Sanogo/Newton/Hawkins

If Hawk got all the shots he wanted, he might be able to do 15-18. But he won’t get all the shots

Sanogo..17 & 10+ rpg
Newton..14
Hawkins..14
Jackson..10

Everyone else pitching in another 23-25 ppg.
 
Hawkins: 18 ppg
Sanogo: 14 and 10
Newton: 11 PPG
Jackson: 10 PPG
Alleyne: 6 PPG
Johnson: 6 PPG
Karaban: 6 PPG
Diarra: 6 PPG
Calcaterra: 2 PPG
Clingan: 2 PPG
Springs: 1 PPG
Hasson and Roumoglou: 1

Most definitely.

However, as the clock runs down, the emphasis will shift to preserving the lead with defensive stops, protecting the ball from turnovers, and made free throws, which could shave 50% off those numbers.
 
Sanogo: 16.7 PPG
Hawkins: 13.2 PPG
Newton: 11.1 PPG
Jackson: 10.6 PPG
Alleyne: 6.2 PPG
Johnson: 4.6 PPG
Karaban: 4.4 PPG
Diarra: 3.8 PPG
Calcaterra: 2.7 PPG
Clingan: 3.4 PPG
Springs: 1.6 PPG
Hasson and Roumoglou: Under 1 PPG each

You either fat fingered Jackson's scoring average or have clowned yourself again.

Jackson may very well be UConn's best player and most valuable player but he's going to do that as the 3rd leading scorer at best.
 
Jackson has to average double figures this year. I think Sanogo will be around 18, Newton and Hawkins around 14.
 
I think if Jackson averages over 12, we are Sweet 16 or Elite 8 type team. If so, that will mean he added something significant to his offensive game and/or is going to the free throw line consistently. Either situation will make everyone else's offense easier and the result should put us in the top 20 in offensive metrics.

Adama will average a double double. Jackson might as well.

How many times will Adama go for 30/20?

I think you hit it. If Jax is avg over 12 we are in great shape. My guess is that he will improve but there will be a fair share of negative critique about his whacky shooting style when we realize that it hasn't changed. That shot is my biggest concern with him. It seems too baked in to have changed much. I hope he can get his buckets on drives and at the line because I don't see a Caron Butler mid range jumper in his game
 
Sanogo-17
Newton-14
Hawkins-13
Jackson-10

I think we have a big 4 offensively. It’ll be interesting to see how many shots the rest of the team gets. I think it’s harder to project beyond these 4, cause you don’t really know how the rotation will shake out.

Im OK with Sanogo being high scorer at 15 a game as long as 15 aren't on 28 shots.
