Now for the predictions…
Points per game: 7.4
Rebounds per game: 4.6
Assists per game: 2.5
Minutes per game: 19.5
Hollis-Jefferson’s production falls heavily on how much playing time Johnson will get. Last season, Johnson averaged 34.9 per game, but there wasn’t a lot of depth behind him to begin with. Hollis-Jefferson should be expected to play in the range of 17-20 minutes per game for his rookie season. Of course, if he starts playing well, the Nets may go with a smaller lineup, which would mean more minutes come his way.
