LeVert Leads Nets

     Caris LeVert is leading the Brooklyn Nets this season averaging 21 points per game.  Levert is also averaging 5 rebounds per game, and 4 assists per game.  The 2018-2019 NBA (National Basketball Association) season has just gotten underway, and the Nets currently have an overall record of 2-2.  The Nets have struggled in recent years, but the lack of depth in the Eastern Conference could allow Brooklyn to sneak into the Playoffs as a seven, or an eight seed.
     Caris LeVert is from Columbus, Ohio, but Levert played his college basketball career at the University of Michigan.  LeVert was drafted 20th overall by the Indiana Pacers in the 2016 NBA Draft.  LeVert never played a game for the Pacers, and he was traded to the Brooklyn Nets for Thaddeus Young.
