Thanks! I've made sure to make a back-up of this one

2013-2014 Season (Ordered by draft position)

Chris Walker
Small Forward
20 years old

Season Stats:
Points: 7.9
Assists: 1.6
Rebounds: 5.0
Steals: 0.4
Blocks: 0.9
Turnovers: 2.5
Minutes: 31.4
Games Played/Started: 79/79

Awards:
Rookie Game Reserve
All-Rookie 2nd Team

Chris Walker struggled for the entire season. The one once projected to be the next Lebron completely flopped. Shooting 39% from the field for the entire season is the most striking stat. Only time will tell if he can avoid becoming a bust at the #1 overall pick


Roderick Corner
Power Forward
21 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 17.1
Assists: 1.1
Rebounds: 9.5
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 2.6
Minutes: 32.8
Games Played/Started: 82/82

Awards:
Rookie Game Starter
All-Rookie First Team

As soon as Roderick corner stepped foot into an NBA game, he became an instant sensation. Averaging a near double-double for his rookie year Roderick finished a narrow second in rookie of the year vote. He finished behind John Bosl by the slim margin of 2 votes. Mr. Corner has shown the potential to become a perennial all-star and dominate this league for years to come.


Mike Madsen
Power Forward
22 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 15.1
Assists: 1.2
Rebounds: 5.0
Steals: 0.5
Blocks: 0.5
Turnovers: 2.6
Minutes: 32.0
Games Played/Started: 80/80

Madsen had a solid rookie year. At the pro-level, despite his athleticism, he has become a jump-shooting bigman, sometimes
even drifting out to the three point line and making them at a high clip. His effort on the glass has been questioned though
Madsen appears to be a productive starter for years to come.


John Bosl
Shooting Guard
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 16.3
Assists: 4.5
Rebounds: 5.1
Steals: 1.0
Blocks: 0.6
Turnovers: 2.4
Minutes: 35.8
Games Played/Started: 76/76

Awards:
All-Star Reserve
Rookie of the Year
Rookie Game Starter
All-Rookie First Team

Bosl, one of the oldest players in the draft, showed why spending 4 years in college can be beneficial. He played well the entire season and was named an All Star for his efforts, he did not fade after the all star break like many of his counterparts. Bosl earned rookie of the year by narrowest margin ever recorded, 2 votes. Bosl is a very smart player and looks
to be a great player down the road.


Chris McKnight
Small Forward
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 12.2
Assists: 2.0
Rebounds: 4.7
Steals: 1.6
Blocks: 1.2
Turnovers: 1.5
Minutes: 32.4
Games Played/Started: 82/80

Awards:
Rookie Game Starter
All-Rookie First Team

McKnight had a strong rookie year. Although he racks up the defensive stats, he is actually only an average on-ball
defender. He can do a little bit of everything, which should allow him to become a solid 4th or 5th starter for a contender.


Calvin Green
Center
22 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 5.3
Assists: 0.4
Rebounds: 2.0
Steals: 0.4
Blocks: 0.3
Turnovers: 0.5
Minutes: 8.6
Games Played/Started: 82/0

Awards:
All-Rookie 2nd Team

Green got minimal playing time behind Anthony Davis and Ryan Anderson, but when he did manage to get on the court he made every minute count.
He shot 57% from the field for the entire season. Eventually he should find a starting role on some team.


Corey Allaway
Point Guard
20 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 5.3
Assists: 1.7
Rebounds: 1.2
Steals: 0.3
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 0.9
Minutes: 12.5
Games Played/Started: 21/0

Allaway played the first half of the season in the D-Leauge, but once he was called up he showed his skills translate to at least a bench role
in the NBA if he can improve his shot.


Paul Karcher
Point Guard
21 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 5.3
Assists: 3.0
Rebounds: 1.4
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 1.0
Minutes: 13.2
Games Played/Started: 61/0

Awards:
Rookie Game Reserve
All-Rookie 2nd Team

Karcher showed slick passing abilities and solid defensive skills.
Looks to become a decent starter/6th man in the near future.


Atjasz Stariczack
Small Forward
20 Years Old

Season Stats (D-LEAUGE):
Points: 7.8
Assists: 1.8
Rebounds: 4.4
Steals: 0.2
Blocks: 0.4
Turnovers: 1.0
Minutes: 22.6
Games Played/Started: 32/16

As expected "The Name" was very raw and it is still too early to tell what his career trajectory is.


Bruce McGee
Center
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 2.7
Assists: 0.4
Rebounds: 2.0
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.3
Turnovers: 0.7
Minutes: 10.5
Games Played/Started: 47/5


McGee was touted as the second best center in a weak draft for centers. Now it appears that all he will ever be is
a solid role-player who can be brought in for a defensive stop every once and awhile.


Overall this draft class appears to be very strong and it will be interesting to see how good some of these guys get.

[SkylineXC]

2014-2015 Season

Chris Walker
Toronto Raptors 21-61
Small Forward
21 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 5.6
Assists: 1.1
Rebounds: 3.4
Steals: 0.4
Blocks: 0.8
Turnovers: 1.8
Minutes: 20.5
Games Played/Started: 82/30

Walker struggled even more in his sophomore season, shooting 35% from the field, it appears as if Walker is quickly turning into a bust even though he touted as the consensus first pick in the 2013 Draft.


Roderick Corner
Charlotte Hornets 60-22
Power Forward
22 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 19.1
Assists: 0.8
Rebounds: 11.3
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 2.1
Minutes: 34.1
Games Played/Started: 82/82

Playoff Stats:
Points: 16.8
Assists: 1.1
Rebounds: 10.2
Steals: 0.9
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 1.9
Minutes: 33.4
Games Played/Started: 17/17

Awards:
All-Star Reserve
Sophomore Game Starter

Corner took the next step in becoming one of the best in the NBA today. He averaged a double-doubled and was named to his first all star team. His production dropped of in the playoffs as swarming defenses got the better of him and he shot 34% from the field. Despite his post-season struggles Roderick Corner appears to be one of the NBA's brightest young stars.


Mike Madsen
Phoenix Suns 27-55
Power Forward
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 18.3
Assists: 0.8
Rebounds: 6.6
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.6
Turnovers: 2.7
Minutes: 33.2
Games Played/Started: 82/82

Awards:
Sophomore Game Reserve

Madsen took another step forward in his game, raising his overall production. He lacks the rebounding instincts of some of the NBA's premier big-men, but his scoring ability as a stretch 4 makes up for it. Mike has already developed into a borderline all-star and should continue to improve his game for several more years.


John Bosl
Orlando Magic 35-47
Shooting Guard
24 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 18.7
Assists: 4.7
Rebounds: 5.5
Steals: 0.9
Blocks: 0.6
Turnovers: 2.5
Minutes: 36.6
Games Played/Started: 82/82

Awards:
Sophomore Game Starter
Rookie/Sophomore Game MVP

Bosl was averaging just 16 points by the all star break, but like the Magic Bosl got red hot after the break and bumped up all of his statistical averages greatly. Bosl is well on his way of making the Orlando Magic relevant after the great Dwightmare of 2011-2012.


Calvin Green
New Orleans Pelicans 51-31
Center
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 7.4
Assists: 0.6
Rebounds: 3.3
Steals: 0.7
Blocks: 0.5
Turnovers: 1.0
Minutes: 16.6
Games Played/Started: 81/1

Playoffs Stats:
Points: 9.5
Assists: 1.2
Rebounds: 5.7
Steals: 1.0
Blocks: 1.3
Turnovers: 1.8
Minutes: 22.3
Games Played/Started: 11/2

Awards:
Sophomore Game Reserve

Green has developed into a solid rotation big-man. He up his production in the playoffs and showed that he can help the Hornets become a contender in the western conference.


Corey Allaway
Washington Wizards 49-33
Point Guard
21 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 4.5
Assists: 2.0
Rebounds: 1.2
Steals: 0.2
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 0.8
Minutes: 9.1
Games Played/Started: 31/0

*Did not play in Washington's Postseason run*

Allaway played some minutes backing up star point guard John Wall, while also splitting time in the D-League and continued to develop his game.


Paul Karcher
Milwaukee Bucks 43-39
Point Guard
22 Years Old

Season Stats (D-LEAGUE):
Points: 18.6
Assists: 9.6
Rebounds: 5.1
Steals: 1.6
Blocks: 0.1
Turnovers: 3.9
Minutes: 37.8
Games Played/Started: 48/48

Karcher was relegated to the D-League due to Milwaukee's surplus of point guards. While in the D-League Karcher dominated the competition while gaining valuable on-court experience.


Atjasz Stariczack
New Orleans Hornets 51-31
Small Forward
21 Years Old

Season Stats (D-LEAGUE):
Points: 11.2
Assists: 2.7
Rebounds: 7.0
Steals: 0.5
Blocks: 0.5
Turnovers: 1.3
Minutes: 29.7
Games Played/Started: 47/33

"The Name" shot just 33% from the field in the D-League. It appears as if the potential that he appeared to have is quickly disappearing, we will see if he can mold his game to the much more athletic NBA



Bruce McGee
Boston Celtics 27-55
Center
24 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 2.0
Assists: 0.4
Rebounds: 1.9
Steals: 0.4
Blocks: 0.3
Turnovers: 0.4
Minutes: 7.7
Games Played/Started: 27/0

McGee hasn't shown much potential over his short NBA career. It appears as if he will never be much more the a bench player on the NBA level.

[SkylineXC]

2015-2016 Season

Chris Walker
Toronto Raptors 20-62
Small Forwards
22 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 11.1
Assists: 1.3
Rebounds: 4.6
Steals: 0.5
Blocks: 1.1
Turnovers: 1.5
Minutes: 25.7
Games Played/Started: 81/49

Walker hasn't shot above 40% for a season yet. He finally seemed to at least play decently in a sixth man role with the Raptors.


Roderick Corner
Charlotte Hornets 57-25
Power Forward
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 20.5
Assists: 1.0
Rebounds: 10.7
Steals: 0.8
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 2.1
Minutes: 34.4
Games Played/Started: 65/65

Playoff Stats:
Points: 22.3
Assists: 0.9
Rebounds: 10.7
Steals: 0.5
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 2.7
Minutes: 36.8
Games Played/Started: 15/15

Corner was injured during the all star break and missed the all star game. He hurt his arm in late January and and aggravated it in February, and again in March, eventually culminating in a broken arm. He missed 17 games but returned in time to help Charlotte reach the Conference Finals before being eliminated by Miami for the second year in a row. Roderick has had trouble being named to any all-nba teams due to a log jam at power forward. He has been overshadowed by Kenneth Faried, Kevin Love, and Blake Griffin. Hopefully in the years to come Corner can gain the recognition he deserves as a top 5 power forward in the NBA.


Mike Madsen
Phoenix Suns 20-62
Power Forward
24 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 20.5
Assists: 1.2
Rebounds: 7.0
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 1.0
Turnovers: 2.9
Minutes: 36.8
Games Played/Started: 82/82

Mike Madsen has developed into a star in the NBA and multiple all-star nominations could be in his future. Madsen has been mired on the abysmal Phoenix Suns, so it has yet to be seen if he can produce at a high level on a winning team.


John Bosl
Orlando Magic 39-43
Shooting Guard
25 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 21.9
Assists: 4.9
Rebounds: 5.6
Steals: 1.1
Blocks: 0.6
Turnovers: 2.6
Minutes: 38.5
Games Played/Started: 81/81

Awards:
All-Star Reserve
All-League 3rd Team

Bosl has become a sensation in the NBA. He has given the fans of Orlando something to look forward to. Bosl hopes to soon be able to lead the Magic into the playoffs. Bosl has proven himself to be one of the top shooting guards in the NBA.


Chris McKnight
Sacramento Kings 44-38
Small Forward
25 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 16.0
Assists: 1.8
Rebounds: 5.4
Steals: 1.5
Blocks: 1.5
Turnovers: 1.7
Minutes: 36.6
Games Played/Started: 81/80

Chris McKnight was one of the most polished players in the 2013 Draft and was a safe bet. He has not disappointed, becoming a strong starter who can do a little bit of everything, look for McKnight to have a long NBA career.


Corey Allaway
Milwaukee Bucks 40-42
Point Guard
22 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 8.7
Assists: 3.3
Rebounds: 1.6
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.1
Turnovers: 1.1
Minutes: 14.3
Games Played/Started: 82/0

Allaway was traded to the Bucks for Paul Karcher before the season began. Playing behind Brandon Jennings Allaway was given more opportunities to prove himself as a player and he acquitted himself very well. It appears as if Allaway can become a solid starter on the right team.


Paul Karcher
San Antonio Spurs 46-36
Point Guard
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 6.3
Assists: 2.8
Rebounds: 1.8
Steals: 0.5
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 1.1
Minutes: 14.4
Games Played/Started: 82/0

Playoff Stats:
Points: 10.0
Assists: 3.5
Rebounds: 2.5
Steals: 0.8
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 1.5
Minutes: 22.1
Games Played/Started: 15/1

Karcher had an interesting season, being traded twice. First to the Wizards and then to the Spurs. Karcher was given solid playing time with the spurs and played a large role in San Antonio's postseason run. Karcher can become a solid starter/6th man if he continues to putsin the work


Atjasz Stariczack
New Orleans Pelicans 54-28
Small Forward
22 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 4.7
Assists: 1.0
Rebounds: 3.1
Steals: 0.3

Rebounds: 3.7
Steals: 0.3
Blocks: 0.3
Turnovers: 0.3
Minutes: 11.7
Games Played/Started: 7/0

Awards:
Slam Dunk Contest Champion

"The Name" solidified his status as a high-flyer, winning the 2015 NBA Dunk Contest. He lacks any semblance of an effective offensive game. The wild comparisons to Kobe Bryant now seem ludicrous and it looks like "The Name"
will only become a solid rotation player.


Bruce McGee
Boston Celtics 16-66
Center
25 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 3.2
Assists: 0.8
Rebounds: 3.5
Steals: 0.6
Blocks: 0.5
Turnovers: 0.9
Minutes: 15.1
Games Played/Started: 72/8

So far McGee has been a bad role player on an even worse team. He lacks any offensive game and his defensive is the only thing that has allowed him to play in this league.

[PointGuard]

Skyline---congratulations on coming up with a very unique and interesting variance of a dynasty report.

2016-2017 Season Recap

Chris Walker
Toronto Raptors 33-49
Small Forward
23 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 11.8
Assists: 1.1
Rebounds: 6.0
Steals: 0.5
Blocks: 1.1
Turnovers: 2.0
Minutes: 28.7
Games Played/Started: 82/47

Walker was having a career year up until the all star break, where his coach then promptly benched him. Walker Improved his field goal percentage significantly (44% up from 37%). It appears that Walker will be a career starter/sixth man, but never what he was originally hyped to be.


Roderick Corner
Charlotte Hornets 57-25
Power Forward
24 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 19.6
Assists: 0.9
Rebounds: 10.7
Steals: 0.6

Assists: 1.3
Rebounds: 3.4
Steals: 0.3
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 1.4
Minutes: 25.0
Games Played/Started 16/9

Corner broke his nose midway through the season, after being snubbed from the all-star game by Trevor Booker. The Hornets look to have a straight shot to the NBA Finals after the Heatles broke up during the off-season, but Corner started experiencing complications with his nose injury and had trouble keeping himself on the floor. Corner was vocal about his disappointment after being eliminated in the Conference Finals for the third straight year, this time in a game 7 overtime loss to the Hawks 132-126. Roderick scored just 4
points and it was clear he was not himself on the court. This stinging defeat has left Roderick more motivated than ever and he is determined to come back even better.


Mike Madsen
Phoenix Suns 29-53
Power Forward
25 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 13.5
Assists: 0.7
Rebounds: 4.5
Steals: 0.4
Blocks: 0.5
Turnovers: 1.6
Minutes: 22.8
Games Played/Started 81/17

He was somehow benched 17 games into the season. Madsen is far too good a player to be coming off the bench especially on a team as bad as the Suns. Hopefully his coach will come to his senses or Madsen will leave for greener pastures this free-agency.


John Bosl
Orlando Magic 43-39
Shooting Guard
26 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 24.1
Assists: 5.0
Rebounds: 6.0

Rebounds: 4.3
Steals: 1.0
Blocks: 0.0
Turnovers: 2.7
Minutes: 40.0
Games Played/Started: 3/3

Awards:
All-Star Starter

Bosl had become the best shooting guard in the league before he broke his arm near the end of February Standing just 6-2 Bosl is a dominant player, and a great rebounder for his size. He returned for most of Orlando's first postseason appearance with him. He was limited by his broken arm and the Magic were eliminated in 5 games. If Bosl shows no negative effects from his arm injury, he will continue to solidify his position as the best shooting guard in the NBA.


Chris McKnight
Sacramento Kings 55-27
Small Forward
26 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 18.1
Assists: 1.7
Rebounds: 5.7

Assists: 2.3
Rebounds: 5.0
Steals: 1.5
Blocks: 1.7
Turnovers: 2.5
Minutes: 37.9
Games Played/Started 13/13

Chris McKnight was never projected to be this good. He helped lead Sacramento to its first postseason berth in years. If he continues to play like this an all-star appearance isn't out of the question


Calvin Green

25 Years Old

Season Stats:
Points: 8.4
Assists: 0.6

Green has been an instrumental reserve to New Orleans. He has helped them to 4 straight postseason berths. It is in doubt if he will return to the city of New Orleans though, it has been stated that he is looking for more playing time and may move on if an opportunity isn't available in New Orleans.

Long Distance Shootout Participant

"The Name' found himself in New Orleans' starting lineup and while he is a fantastic rebounder, that does not make up for the fact that he shoots an abysmal 34% from the field. He needs to learn to use his athleticism more and his forgettable jump-shot MUCH less. If he can figure this out, he is a 20 and 10 type of player, but it appears as if he will never learn.

Up next will be the players first real free-agency now that they have completed their 4 year rookie contracts. It will be interesting to see where some of them end up going to.

In addition to tracking their free-agent moves, I will do a 4-year recap of each of the players career statistics and achievements.

5 years in Chris Walker has been a bust of a first overall pick. He's no Kevin Durant or Lebron James. Some sources have stated the "Sky" Walker as he was once known spent too much time drinking and partying and not enough working on his game as he felt he had already made it. No at just 24 he appears to have hit his ceiling and won't progress past being a decent 5th starter on a bad team.

All-Star Starter

Corner had a career year after signing his first big time contract. Corner was named an all star starter for the first time, but was still left off the all-nba teams in favor of other very deserving power forwards. His Hornets reached the conference finals for the 4th year straight, this time they were eliminated by the Detroit Pistons led by the new super team of Lebron James, Chris Paul, Andre Igoudala, and Greg Monroe. Corner was livid after being swept by King
James yet again and stated that he would never let that happen again before storming out of the press conference.

efforts. He carried his team on his back and brought them to the playoffs for the second straight year, this time reaching the second round before being eliminated by the Roderick Corner led Hornets.

thought he was deserving of at least one or the other. McKnight's Kings managed to reach the second round of the playoffs before being eliminated in 7 games.

Green continued his role as New Orleans primary big off the bench. He has stated many times that unless he doesn't get any offer he deems respectable, he won't be returning to New Orleans without a guarantee of increased playing time. The Pelicans made it all the way to the conference finals before bowing out.

Karcher and Damian Lillard meshed well, but a late slump had the Trailblazers tied for 8th in the west and heart breakingly they lost the tie-breaker and had to sit at home.

The worst shooter of all time still somehow manages to play over 39 minutes a game. 30% from the field. That is just terrible. But "The Name" still got a massive contract extension from the Pelicans. If only he could just shot 40% from the field...

McGee was relegated to only garbage time minutes and his relationship with the Celtics organization is beginning to take a hit. McGee understands that
with arrival of Tyson Chandler as their back-up center pushed him onto the bench, McGee also wants to get playing time, so he will most likely be jumping ship from Boston.
