Frank Kaminsky

  • 11 points, 3.6 rebounds per game in 2017-18

Here is the Hornet I expect big things from this year. Frank Kaminsky’s numbers did not much in his third year in the league from his second, but his shooting got profoundly better. The stretch power forward 43% from the fields and 38% from the 3-point line. A 7-footer who can shoot? That is something every team would love to have, and the Hornets need to utilize him this year.
