On my game, I have him around a 74 or 75. He'll contribute immediatley, play the point, average about 13 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists a game in his first season. I think he's the next Scottie Pippen. So if you think 75 is too slow or too high, give him the same numbers of Pippen. Remember, this kid isn't the best perimeter shooter in the world from the 3 games I've watched him on ESPN and Fox, but he'll get better as he matures.

I don't think there is a specific formula for those averages, but here's my advice: simulate a season and look for a player with similiar stats (Players to look at: Pippen, Cuttino Mobley, Ron Artest, Richard Hamilton, Lamar Odom). To get him to average 18 points a game, I'd have his offensive awareness around 83 and his FG around 79-81. Then I'd set his FT at 80 and his 3P at around 72 (like I said--he has a suspect jumpshot). The rest is up to you; I think it largely depends on how his team will adjust to him running the show. I really don't think with Ricky Davis, Dajuan Wagner, and Zydrunas Illgauskas he'll get enough shots to average 18 points a game. But then again, he might be the next MJ, dominate the ball, and average over 20. I'm just saying from watching him on TV, at this point in his development, he needs to improve his stroke b/c in the NBA he's not going to be able to drive the lane like he did in High School.
