Message: [QUOTE="REB1094, post: 5264087, member: 12147"] The regular season is over, so here’s how all our guys did. Long post incoming [B]Castle[/B]: 14.7 PPG, 4.1 APG, 3.7 RPG shooting 43/29/72 [LIST] [*]Will most likely win rookie of the year. Castle exceeded all individual expectations, almost dropping 15 PPG as a rookie [*]Had plenty of opportunities with Wemby and Fox suffering season ending injuries and took advantage. The ability to get to the rim, playmaking, and defense are already strong NBA level. If Castle can develop a consistent jumpshot, the league better watch out. That's an All Star player [/LIST] [B]Clingan[/B]: 6.5 PPG, 7.9 MPG, 1.6 BPG shooting 54/29/60 in 19.8 MPG [LIST] [*]Took over the starting gig after Ayton was out for injury, but this felt like a changing of the guard. Would be surprised to see Ayton on the team much longer [*]About what we expected - extremely raw offensively, DPOY potential defensively [*]If he can get his conditioning up (which was vastly improved as the season went on) and can improve his footwork to finish at the rim, Clingan also has a very bright future [/LIST] [B]Newton[/B]: (G League stats): 16.3 PPG, 6.9 APG, 5.9 RPG shooting 40/30/81 [LIST] [*]Fills up the stat sheet, but definitely was inefficient (rough shooting splits & averaged 3.3 turnovers) [*]I don't see an NBA future with Minnesota as they are very guard heavy, but a 6'5 CG that can do a little bit of everything will always have potential [/LIST] [B]Cam[/B]: 4.2 PPG, 1.4 APG, 1.2 RPG shooting 42/36/100. G League stats 20/5/3 on 49/44/71 [LIST] [*]Took advantage of NBA opportunities (23pts vs Mavs, 16pts vs Suns 14pts vs Wizards) while also dropping 51 early in the G League season [*]The size and lack of athleticism limits long term NBA potential, but would anyone be surprised if Cam found a home as a 3pt threat and energy guy off the bench? I sure wouldn't. Memphis would be wise to convert his contract from 2 way to guaranteed, they could use that right now [/LIST] [B]Hawkins: [/B]10.8 PPG, 2.8 RPG, 1.2 APG shooting 37/33/82 [LIST] [*]In and out due to injury, but overall inconsistent play and a disappointing year from Hawk [*]Had breakout moments (had at least 1 game of 20+ points every month) but overall struggled to string good games together [*]Hawkins will be entering his third year and is still pretty much exclusively a shooter who isn't making shots. Entering the danger zone, next year will be make or break [/LIST] [B]Andre Jackson: [/B]3.4 PPG, 2.7 RPG, 1.2 APG shooting 48/40/50 [LIST] [*]Weird year. Started the year off the bench (Bucks were bad), inserted into the starting lineup (Bucks were good), then completely benched after the trade deadline (Bucks were bad but got hot at the end of the season) [*]As always the box score isn't indicative of how he played. He brought pretty instant value to Milwaukee. But there isn't much to say other than Andre [B]needs [/B]to develop an offensive game to get a consistent role in the league [/LIST] [B]Sanogo: [/B](G League stats) 16.2 PPG, 10.1 RPG, 1.3 BPG shooting 53/42/75 [LIST] [*]Adama was dominating the G League, but got injured and then waived. Don't believe he's been picked up by any team since [*]As a 6'9 C that likes to play around the basket, I see limited NBA upside here. But would be a good decision by any team to have him anchor their G League roster. From there anything can happen (thinking of the 16pts/15reb in the preseason this year and that 20pts/20reb game last year) [/LIST] [B]Bouknight: [/B](G League stats) 12.7 PPG, 6.0 RPG, 5.3 APG shooting 44/30/63 [LIST] [*]Bouk has a steep hill to climb to get back into the NBA, but had some impressive moments in the G League to start that climb [*]Perhaps the most notable change in his playstyle is that he is trying to be a playmaker. Averaged 5 assists a game and had several games of 10+ assists [/LIST] [B]Tyrese: [/B]8.7 PPG, 3.7 RPG, 2.0 APG shooting 41/35/79 [LIST] [*]From Portsmouth Invitational to 2nd round pick to NBA starter. Tyrese is such a feel good story [*]He had 11 starts this year on an admittedly tanking Nets team. I don't think starter is his long term role for a team that wants to contend, but Tyrese has the size, athleticism, skill, and work ethic to stick around as an NBA player for a long time [/LIST] [B]Andre Drummond: [/B]7.3 PPG, 7.9 RPG shooting 50% [LIST] [*]Drummond refuses to go away. Say what you want about the guy, but he just finished his 13th NBA season [*]7ft strong and athletic body that is willing to take a bench role to control the paint. He has NBA value and should stick around as long as his body holds up [/LIST] Calcaterra and Polley did play in the G League last season, but had minimal minutes (Joey 2 PPG in 6 minutes, Polley 3 points in 9 minutes) [/QUOTE]
