Rookies to get more playing time for the 76ers

Blogged under Front Page,Rookie Report by Nothing but Net on Saturday 3 February 2007 at 11:05 pm

Rodney Carney has moved into the starting line up at small forward and he’s been playing well. Carney has played in 46 games and he’s averaging 16.6 minutes, 6.2 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.3 assists. Carney has shot well so far as he’s hit 45.5% of his shots from the floor and 40.5% from three point range. The Sixers need to get Carney more shots.

Forward Bobby Jones hasn’t played very much this season but the Sixers might as well let him play more and see what they got in him. Jones has played in 24 games and he’s averaged 5.6 minutes, 1.8 points, 1.2 rebounds and 0.3 assists. He’s shot 48.5% from the floor which is pretty good.

Rodney Carney is looking good

The Sixers have to be happy with Ridney Carney. They have moved him into the starting line-up after Iverson demanded his trade and he’s held his own. He has played in 19 games and has averaged 15.2 minutes, 4.5 points, 1.2 rebounds and 0.3 assists per game so far this season.

None of the rest of the rookies have gotten much of a chance to play. Ivan McFarlin has played the most. He has played in 9 games and has averaged 3.9 minutes, 1.6 points, 0.9 rebounds and 0.1 assists per game so far this season.

Steven Smith has only played in 5 games and has averaged 2.2 minutes and 0.4 rebounds so far this season.

Bobby Jones has only played in 4 games and has averaged 1.1 minutes, 0.3 points, 0.5 rebounds and 0.3 assists.

Carney will determine how this draft class is graded and he’s off to a good start.
