Roy Hibbert Will Average 20 Points And 10 Rebounds Per Game This Season — At Least
While I’ve had my criticisms against Roy Hibbert, for some unearthly reason I believe that he’ll average at least 20 points and 10 rebounds –at least — this season. Mostly, because he’ll have to.
The Pacers won’t (likely) have Paul George at all this season and they lost Lance Stephenson — the team’s third leading scorer behind George and David West last season — in the offseason. If the Pacers are going to be any sort of factor in this division, or in the NBA this year, someone is going to have to step up in a huge way.
And that somebody needs to be Hibbert.
