Caris LeVert

Caris LeVert just finished is second season with the Brooklyn Nets. The Nets small forward had an impressive second season in the league, stepping up as a sixth man option. He still has not perfected his 3-point shooting, but LeVert is a dominant driver who can finish with both hands.

    • He has a strong mid-range shooting game and can really light up the scoreboard. To go along with his strong offensive game, he is a great defender. He is a steal threat who will complete the play by scoring on the other end.

    This will be LeVert’s second time playing on the Brooklyn Nets Summer League roster. Last summer in Las Vegas, LeVert started all five games he played in. He averaged 16.0 points, 2.0 assists, and 5.0 rebounds per game. He also averaged 25.9 minutes each game.

    Expect LeVert to be one of the Nets main scorers this summer league. The 23-year-old will be playing a lot of minutes each outing and will be a clear standout player.

    It will be interesting to see how dominant LeVert will be. He know LeVert as the aggressive driver, but will he put his shooting on display?

    Last season, LeVert averaged 12.1 points, 4.2 assists, and 3.7 rebounds in 71 games for Brooklyn.
