Over/Under # of assist for Love this season 

Post#1 » by Dan's with the Wolves » Sat Jun 28, 2008 8:04 pm

With the Wolves having three very good 3 point shooter on their team
Player Made Attempts 3P% NBA Rank
Mike Miller 155 359 .432 11
Randy Foye 61 148 .412 21
Rashad McCants 142 349 .407 23

And,

Kevin Love said to be such as great passer - although he only averaged 1.9 assists per game at UCLA, how many assists to you predict Kevin Love will get kicking it out to the 3 very good three point shooters this season?

I predict 3.5 assists per game.

3.5 is wishful thinking, especially as a rookie. Without putting a lot of thought into it, I'd guess 2.something.

UCLA's slow pace of play had something to do with that number being so low. When I did the comparison adjusting the numbers for pace and per 40 minutes, he averaged 2.7 assists. That said, his assist number next season will depend on how ready his for minutes and how much this team runs.

I say 2 or 2.5 as a rookie, he will probably get an assist a game just heaving it down court to Corey Brewer for the lay in.
