He is an undersized C in the NBA who, as a 4th year/senior, still did not dominate as a 22 year old in the NCAA.
Rebounding is a skill which translate very well to the NBA and he only managed 6.2 per game.BigCamB wrote: View PostHis stats are nearly identical in his final three years, have to be rather concerning in regards to his upside.
But again, he has to be able to rebound better. This would be my major concern. No way a guy who is limited and can't shoot can get away with being a mediocre rebounder.
If he fell far, I'd gladly take him with OKC's pick. Not likely to get a keeper in the high 50s anyway. Wouldn't take him with our higher 2nd rounder though.

I've mocked Young before, but I wouldn't hate him as a mid or late second-rounder. I wouldn't take him with the Sacramento pick, though. I think he could be a solid bench player, and he does a lot of useful things reasonably well like setting screens, team defence, disrupting the opposing offence, and particularly pick-and-roll defence. I can see him carving out a sort of Ronny Turiaf role in the league, which wouldn't suck for a late second-rounder.

Anyone know where shabazz Napier is projected to go? I'm sure this run he is having right now will improve his draft stock but he really seems like kemba 2.0. He could just be the flavor of the week for me but that seems like one sweet stroke.
