3. Zach LaVine

Position: Shooting Guard
Age: 22
Experience: 3rd Season
2016-17 Season Averages: 37.2 MPG, 18.9 PPG, 3.4 RPG, 3.0 APG, 0.9 SPG, 2.6 3PM

Up until the knee injury that ended his season, Zach LaVine was having the best season of his three-year career.

He was averaging 18.9 points a game which is third on the team. That is also a 4.9 increase over last season. He solidified his role as one of the Wolves’ Big Three with his consistent and improved play.

LaVine is an exciting player to watch, largely in part to the energy he brings with his flashy dunks. Hopefully he is able to fully recover from his injury and pick up right where he left off.
