BALLER MOVE: Draft in rounds 8-12
CURRENT ADP: 100
ANALYSIS: The biggest mystery of our trio, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will be taking on a significantly larger role in his second professional season with the Brooklyn Nets.
The 21-year-old played in 29 games and started 17 last year, averaging 5.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists and 1.3 steals in 21.2 minutes per game. His rookie season was one that saw him miss a chunk of time with an ankle injury, depriving us of the chance to see his work for a full year.
Barring any further injuries, expect Hollis-Jefferson’s numbers to go on an upward trend following the departure of Thaddeus Young. With the Nets not looking particularly enticing heading into the new season, RHJ could be the brightest light at Barclays Center. With an increase in minutes and draft projections calling for him to go in the later rounds, look for the youngster to be a solid breakout candidate.
