List who the Jazz scoring leaders will be, from most points per game to least. Since the Jazz seem to have a clear top 10 players, let's just do the list to 10.

  1. Lauri Markkanen
  2. Jordan Clarkson
  3. THT
  4. Sexton
  5. Collins
  6. Kessler
  7. Olynyk
  8. Ochai
  9. George
  10. Dunn
 
Markkanen
Clarkson
Collins
Sexton
THT

The rest will be stuck somewhere in the mid- to high-single digits
 
Lauri
Clarkson
Sexton
THT
Collins
Kessler
KO
George
Ochai
Dunn
 
Fine

Lauri
JC
Sexton
Collins
Kessler
THT
Ochai
George
KO
Dunn
 
Lauri: ~27 ppg
Jordan: ~17 ppg
Sexton: ~16 ppg
Collins: ~14 ppg
THT: ~13 ppg
Kessler: ~12 ppg
Ochai: ~10 ppg
Olynyk: ~9 ppg
Dunn: ~8.5 ppg
Keyonte: ~8 ppg

I think the Jazz are going to make trades during the season that will shuffle things up.

I think Lauri will see his ppg decrease this year. Last year teams weren't ready to know what to do with the jazz. This year they do. He will see much more defensive pressure which will open things up for others. I think he'll end around 23-24 ppg, and I expect his rebounding to stay steady around 8 but his assists will likely go up, I'm thinking maybe even about 3 or 4 if he is working within the flow of the offense well.

Yeah, pretty much.

I have no idea why anyone would expect his ppg to go up. If he takes "another leap", it'll be because he's not only scoring but facilitating too.

100% will average more. It's a surefire bet imo.
 
POST ASB Lauri averaged 29 points. He's going to take more shots this year. He's going to spend the entire year knowing he's the man and he has to score like the man. He's taking at least 19 shots per game this year.

I don't think it's that simple. Vando averaged 6 field goal attempts for the Jazz and was essentially replaced by John Collins. Collins will probably want around 12-14 shots per game, which would take him back to his best years.

You act like this is your first post on the board.

But okay... take a look at top 10 ppg of the worst teams over the last couple seasons and compare it to yours. It looks like you think wetx will have a historically bad offense. But that fits your persona.

What?

According to my extremely rough ppg distribution prediction above, we'll score around 113 points per game. Yes, it's worse than last season, because I happen to think we'll be considerably worse.

I don't see the problem. It's just a prediction.

You realize no team has ever had 10 players play 82 games right? So your math is a little off at best. You can try again though!
 
Teams often tell their best players to shoot less and do less because they added a mid tier starter.
