These (37) 2nd-year players have all played at least 100 minutes this season.
eW/484 rates are a couple of days old.

Total rates for the 37, last year and this year:

Code: Select all

. yr    PER   WS/48   BPM   e484   RPM
2016   13.5   .075   -1.68   .82  -1.66
2017   13.8   .078   -1.10   .87   -.82
Actually, the 2016 line is last year's rates * this year's minutes.

6 of the top 20 draft picks at or above .100 on ws/48. 2 are positive on BPM. Only a couple positive on RPM. Got to wait longer generally for even league average performance. Most won't make it.
