Which Nets would you like to see get more minutes as the season winds down?

Christian Milcos (@ChristianMilcos): Caris LeVert has been the most exciting Net to watch for some time now. Any more reps Kenny Atkinson can get the Michigan product should be welcomed, as his confidence will build heading into next season. He is currently averaging 8.1 points on 45.6 percent shooting in 21.5 minutes a contest. As long as he continues producing at a high rate, then Atkinson should look to increase his minutes to 25+, like other starters.

Tyler Dencker (@T_Danks_): I think the Nets have been distributing their minutes pretty well as of late. There are so many young guys on this team, so whoever is out there is usually getting valuable time on the court. Specifically, though, they need to keep feeding Caris LeVert minutes (which I’m sure they will). The more I watch him play, the more I believe he could be a star in this league. As long as he’s on the court as the season winds down, he will continue to give Nets fans something to look forward to next season — and beyond.

Matt Pisani (@pisannd5): I want to see more of Isaiah Whitehead, Caris LeVert and Quincy Acy. These three could be big parts of this team next season, and the more experience and chances to screw up now, the better. Acy brings a lot of energy, which could cause him to make mistakes. Whitehead is not a pure point guard, so he makes a few errors when running the floor. LeVert also makes rookie mistakes, especially coming out of Michigan with not too much experience and missing the first quarter of the season. If these three can get more minutes, it would be strongly beneficial for Brooklyn in the future. These are young talents that could make an impact, so let them try and make an impact.
