Games played

Presuming Millsap makes the team out of training camp, the stat that he could set a career-high in is games played.

Appearing in 47 game his rookie year, the younger brother of Denver Nuggets star Paul, Elijah could very well be leaned on to help fill in at shooting guard after the losses of Brandon Knight for the year and Davon Reed for the foreseeable future.

Should he play well enough to earn filling in with any consistency (or if another injury occurs ahead of him), then he could very well blow past 47 games, probably winding up somewhere in the high 50s to low 60s.
