Stick him on Nashville next year as a #2 or #1 and his PPGM may actually drop
Eller on the other hand barely got on the PP and only got an average of a bit more than 15 minutes a game in part because Gomez was around getting 14 minutes.

So what's the argument? He played 20 min a game and produced 0.81 ppg.
