2014 Outlook: Enes Kanter

Jazz center Enes Kanter is destined to become the full-time starter and will look to take another step forward in his fourth NBA season. After averaging 7.2 points and 4.3 boards in 15.4 minutes per game in 2012-13 , Kanter put together a productive 2013-14 campaign. He secured 24 double-doubles, and finished 2013-14 with averages of 12.3 points and 7.5 rebounds in 26.7 minutes per game, all career-best numbers for the 22-year-old. It was a bit mind-boggling that Kanter somehow lost playing time last season to veterans like Marvin Williams and Richard Jefferson. He appeared in 80 games, 37 of which he started. That will probably change under newly-hired coach Quin Snyder. Because of his potential, target him in the later rounds as a potential value pick on Draft Day.
