unds in 55 games played this season for Atlanta averaging only about 16 minutes per game. He was inactive or benched for the first 20 games of the season, but started 35 of the games he did play in.

These numbers are not very impressive considering the amount of money he will be making over the next three years compared to a guy like Dewayne Dedmon — who doubled Plumlee’s production at half of the cost.

Plumlee had little to no impact for the Hawks this season from a statistical standpoint, but did throw down some entertaining dunks that got the “highlight factory” going. Hopefully we get to see more of this if he is still in an Atlanta uniform when next season comes around.
