Brooklyn Nets 2017-18 Player Grade: Caris LeVert

The Brooklyn Nets 2016 first round pick out of Michigan had a strong season for coach Kenny Atkinson. He improved in nearly every statistical category.

His averages improved from 8.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.9 assists in 2016 to 12.1 points, 4.2 assists, and 3.7 rebounds this past season. LeVert’s three point shooting also improved from 32 percent to nearly 35 percent. His overall field goal percentage dipped slightly, but that was mostly due to increased usage, as the young guard averaged nearly four more attempts per game.

Perhaps the most important number was 71: the number of games LeVert appeared in.
