3 Rookies that might be in the top 10 in scoring,rebounds,assists
Amare averaged 23.1 ppg last year good for 10th. I don't see any rookie this year averaging close to that
Al Horford averaged 9.9 rpg last year good for 10th, Cousins and Griffin have a shot IMO, but I wouldn't count on it
Dwayne Wade averaged 6.5 apg last year good for 10th, I would expect John Wall to be top 10 there, but no one else.
Realistically I think Wall will be somewhere between ranks 5 and 10 in scoring and assists. Also, Cousins and Griffin do have a decent chance to crack the top ten in rebounds.
I would be surprised if Babbit or James breakthrough those top ten thresholds in their rookie season. Same with Bledsoe.
Luke Babbitt?
He'll be a great role player, but with brandon roy, lamarcus aldridge, andre miller etc how will he even be close?? Even if he had stayed in minnesota and gotten every opportunity i dont think he'd be among the top 10 scorers in the league. He'll be lucky if he averages 10-15 a game let alone 20
Luke Babbitt top 3 scorer?? I think it'll be:
1.John Wall
2.Blake Griffin
3. Demarcus Cousins
3 rookies that might be in the top 10 in Rebounds.
1. DeMarcus Cousins
2. Blake Griffin
3. Greg Monroe
3 rookies that might be in the top 10 in Assists
1.John Wall
2.Evan Turner
3. Greg Monroe
Last the top 3 rookie scorers were
1. Tyreke Evans (16th in the NBA)
2. Steph Curry (34)
3. Brandon Jennings (51)
Rebounding
1. Taj Gibson (31)
2. DeJuan Blair (38)
3. Jonas Jerekbko (49)
Assists
1. Steph Curry (13)
2. Tyreke Evans (15)
3. Brandon Jennings (16)
I think the only possibility is that John Wall is in the top 10 in assists.

Eric Bledsoe might be top 10 in TO's...Monroe will have more assists than Bledsoe. Heck, Cousins might have more than Bledsoe
I only see Griffin top 10 maybe in rebounds and
Wall top 10 in assists (about 7.5 - 8 pg)
None of the rooks are gonna get top 10 in ppg (they'll need 23 per game?)-------good luck with that
Damion James top 10 in the NBA in rebounding? haha a backup small-forward!!??!?! OMG i just about died..he'll average 4 if hes lucky
There are some really odd predictions happening here.
Wall getting int he Top 10 assists is about the only one i can see happening, and even then he would be performing above expectations. Why people totally overrate rookie impact i don't know.
Evans last year was in VERY elite company with his rookie stats and still wasn't that close to cracking it in any areas. About 24 PPG is hard for any player, let alone a rook.
