I wonder about his minutes too. They have some options, I forgot they had Patrick Patterson as well.
Melo is the oldest of their big 3, I wonder if they keep him at like 30-32 minutes a night?
His 3 point rate jumped a ton last year, that kinda snuck up on me. Around .22 the previous 2 years, then up to 0.30. You'd think there would be a lot more spot up situations for him this year.
For reference's sake, his 3PAr on the Olympics teams was about 54%. I can't imagine him being that high in the NBA, but like I said, a jump up to 40-45% might be enough to get him up over the 20 point mark.
