I don't even see Bennett as a big in the NBA, and he's the closest one. He is definitely more a perimeter oriented tweener though, and I've heard abysmal things about his defense. I don't think he'll get anywhere close to 20/10 though. He'll never get on the floor with bad defense, no position, and a lack of size.

Outside of Bennett, probably Zeller or Olynyk.

I know most likely no one in this draft will average those numbers but if their was one guy to do it I'd say Alex Len would be that guy which is why he's been getting a lot of stock lately. The guy can rebound, and score the ball with basic mid range jumpers and can actually knock down his three throws unlike Noel which is coming more important because of these "Hack-a-Bigman" trends.

Noel to me seems more of one dimensional type player on the defensive side averaging 15/12/3 at his prime while Len is a more well rounded player.


My god, there were NONE in the entire NBA this year. No way any of the rookies come anywhere close. I don't think anyone comes remotely close to Anthony Davis' 13.5/8.2 rookie year.

I interprited the question as meaning if they would ever average 20/10 in a season. Certainly none are going to in their rookie year, but mayb they have the upside to do it. As mentioned earlier I think Len, Bennett, and Noel project well above the rest of the field but I still don't see those kinds of numbers in their career.

My response was NO PLAYER IN THE NBA AVERAGED 20/10 this year - regardless of how many years in the league. Only 8 players averaged 10 rebounds or more this year. Only 9 players averaged 20 pts or more. And those two sets don't intersect at all. Highest scoring 10 rebound guy was Dwight Howard at 17.1 pts. Highest rebounding 20 pt scorer was LeMarcus Aldridge at 9.7.

No, I don't see any player in this draft, no matter how long they play, the equal of Howard or Aldridge. Maybe if we have another league expansion that creates "Walt Wesley" opportunities for one of these guys - but shy of that.....
