Kalkbrenner and S James are my biggest good draft calls so far.

I see we both put Charlotte down with 31 wins in the contest. I used Pelton minutes and applied them to 4 different stats.
Hornets are using 4 rookies, all drafted in the top 34. Last night 3 of them started, and they got shellacked.
Here I'm comparing their projected Wins with their predicted wins contributed:

Minute totals on the left are KPel; on the right, current*82/5
* - eWins rate does not include last night's game: McNeely was great, Kalk good, James meh, Kneup terrible.
Kneuppel largely cancels overachievement by the other 3.
