He is one of the hardest working players that I've ever seen, watch him without the ball and you will see constant motion. Stackhouse came in to the program as the next Jordan, although he did not lead UNC to a title like Jordan, he certainly did not disappoint. Offensively, Stackhouse is great at driving to the basket, either finishing or drawing a foul (he gets to the line a *ton*). He has really worked hard at improving his range (from 2 for 20 to 37 for 90). He has a real nice looking shot, however it is still a little flat and takes to long to get off (not a real quick release). Still it got better as the year went on and I expect him to have a great outside shot before his career is done. Stackhouse turns the ball over way to much and will need a much better dribble to be a NBA guard. Stackhouse is a *great* offensive rebounder. Defensively, Stackhouse needs a lot of work. He tends to overplay the steal and leaves his man to much. However, he wants to be know as a complete player and worked hard at this. Stackhouse was also hurt a bit by playing PF this year after Sullivan went down with an injury. He was forced to play close to the basket against bigger people. This will cost him a bit in the NBA where he will play smaller/quicker players. Stackhouse is a *great* defensive rebounder. Stackhouse will be a top 5 pick. He is a very hard worker who wants to be great, and will do whatever is necessary to achieve that. He also wants to win and his play at the end of games was great. I would bet his turnovers where much lower in the final 5 minutes. Stackhouse is one of my favorite players ever at UNC, I'm just sorry that we did not get to see him longer.

Was a power foward in college but projected as small foward in NBA. Excellent post moves including left handed jump hook to about 12 feet out. Solid offensive rebounder. Quick and has good ball-handling for someone his size he can dribble the whole floor and make the shot. Also very good 3pt man. shot 78% from free throw line this year. Had double figures in scoring every game this season. Not yet tested at the SF position. Did have ACL tear though appears to be well recovered. Unselfish and a team player. Scout: More Poop: O'Bannon was considered one of the top players when coming out of high school. Originally signing with UNLV, O'Bannon transfered to UCLA after UNLV was placed on probation, and promptly blew out his knee and people wondered if he would ever be the same. It took 5 years but O'Bannon finally became a superstar leading UCLA to the national championship and winning several POY's. Offensively, O'Bannon is a versatile athlete who can finish on the break, score inside and out. He greatly improved his outside range and became a legitimate three point threat. Defensively, he needs to become stronger and learn to guard smaller and quicker players then he had to in college. Ed is a good rebounder. O'Bannon will be a high lottery pick. He is a mature person (and player) and will add leadership and class to any team that picks him.

He was slowed by injuries but still had a great overall year. He was the MAC POY three years in a row. Trent is very strong and has a good low post game and has worked hard on his outside game (although this is still his weekness). He is more a PF in a SF's body so there is concern that he may lack the quickness to guard the more athletic SF's in the league. However Trent has good work ethic and should work hard. He can bench press 390 pounds and has a 45 inch vertical leap. He should be a lottery pick.

Georgia Tech highlights include a three pointer at the buzzer to beat Southern Cal in the 1st round of the NCAA his freshman year. Forest put on one of the most impressive three game displays ever at the ACC in 1993 propelling Georgia Tech to the ACC tournament championship. The last two years have been mostly disappointments for Forrest and GT with no NCAA appearances, inconsistent play and injuries that has cost Forrest several games the last two years. Offensively, Forrest has many nice skills close to the basket (a good drop step and fall away). His strength helps him maneuver around taller players. His range goes out to at most 15 feet. He is an average free throw shooter. Defensively, Forrest has been a week spot for Georgia Tech his entire career. He was threatened with benchings durning his junior year for lack of defensive effort. His weight problems the last couple of years only seemed to intensify the problem. However he is a good rebounder. Durning his sophomore year, Forrest was projected as a sure future lottery pick, now a mid-first rounder. Part of the problem is what forward position do you play him. He is not really tall enough to be a power forward and his perimeter skills are not strong enough to play small forward at the NBA level. Overall Forrest has a ton of talent, how he does in the NBA though remains a big question.

He scores from inside and outside, but is at his best shooting the 15-18 foot jumper off the dribble. He can shoot going to his left and his right. Though Ford has improved his 3 point shooting (30% over his first 2 seasons and 35% this season), he is still streaky from beyond 20 ft. and needs to improve as a catch-and-shooter. He uses his body well to sneak inside for easy buckets, but needs to take the ball all the way to the basket. It would draw fouls and take advantage of his free-throw shooting (77% this season). Like many small forwards on the college level, ball handling is an area in which he is competent, but could improve. He jumps fairly well, has long arms and is a very good rebounder (9.5 per game) for his size. He runs the floor well and has good quickness. He is a streaky player on defense who is averaging just under 2 steals per game." Scout: Don Leventhal (Sporting News) via Kevin Scott Mullerleile More Poop: Ford was the MVP of the Desert Classic, drasticly improving his draft stock. As a reserve for the Atlantic team, Ford averaged 16 points and 6 rebounds a game. Scout: Craig Simpson More Poop: Sherrell Ford came from a big-time HS program in Proviso East, where he was teammates with the likes of Michael Finley and Donnie Boyce. Ford might just be the best of the 3 players. After sitting out his 1st year at UIC as Prop 48, Ford was a dominating force for 3 years on the offensive and defensive ends. Ford is flat out a tremendous scorer -- he can score inside and out, and is a high-flyer at rim level. For a SF, he will really be able to grab some offensive boards in the NBA. He is a tremendous worker, and it extends off of the court, as he is working towards his degree while overcoming a learning disability. Ford was named MVP at one of the pre-draft camps and could be picked as high as the middle of the 1st round.

Very strong, and at 6'7" (a height that may shrink in the pre-season camps) he very much held his own in the paint offensively and defensively. He is a rebounder supreme and can also block his share of shots. Roe had a tremendous work ethic -- while there are still questions about his perimeter game -- during the Goodwill Games, he was often the last to leave practice, as he would practice (and reportedly make quite a few) his 3-pt shooting. Roe also probably works as hard as anybody in the game. Especially during a big game, he will rise to the occasion (as shown in the Arkansas game in the Tip-off classic). Roe still seems to be a tweener in the eyes of many scouts though, as they are not sold on his game facing the basket. The future is also unclear whether or not he will be a PF or a SF, although it seems likely he will play both positions. He projects as high as the mid-late lottery in the draft.

I say almost because he can't handle the ball or run an offense like Pippen but in terms of scoring ability, they are similar. He has a wide array of one-on-one and post moves and can score from just about anywhere on the floor, in addition to being able to set up his teammates. He would have been in the race for Big East Player of the Year had he not been on such a miserable team, but he was instrumental in Providence's two big upsets of the year when they beat Villanova and UConn in the space of a week. He also played well during the Big East tournament when Providence upset Syracuse, and during NIT. He should be a first round pick, but may slip to the second round. Though he could just as easily slip to the lottery. Scout: Sreekar Shastry More Poop: Williams was invited to the Desert Classic and averaged 12.5 points and 7.5 rebounds a game.

Scout: Art Waldman More Poop: His shot selection has been questionable, to say the least, in that he made himself the offensive leader of a team on which he was _clearly_ not the best offensive player. He particularly has a bad habit of shooting _any_ open 3-ptr, despite an atrocious percentage -- apparently not understanding that the reason he's open so much is that the opposition _wants_ him to shoot. At the same time, Donny's in the mold of John Starks -- you wouldn't want him to be thinking too much on the court, because it would take away from his best qualities, which are his aggressiveness and will to excel. I never would have thought he could be among the conference scoring leaders, but this year he was. He also vastly improved as a rebounder when we needed him. Of especial note is his fine free-throw shooting; although not a reliable jump-shooter, he has a knack at the charity stripe. Donny is very good at cherry-picking; that sounds derisive, and yet he finds a way to outlet consistently and still have a presence on the boards. He must have scored six or eight points a game by breaking downcourt. He has a good courtsense and generally is in the right place at the right time. Of course, as that last stat suggests, his half-court offense is not as impressive as his gaudy scoring totals might lead one to believe. As his height and weight suggest, Donny has an NBA small-forward body. The question now is, can he dribble and shoot well enough? I also wonder whether he can accept being a role player, which he clearly will be at the next level, or whether he will continue trying to force his offense beyond his abilities.

However, it came down a little fast, as the following year, he went down with injury after only 2 games. But after taking the redshirt year, Lang came back to form and finished off a sterling career at UNCC. Lang is a tremendous inside player for his size, and works hard inside. He is a powerful guy who likes to take it to the glass and finish off with the dunk. This past season, he moved his game a little more out to the perimeter and showed some range on his shot. Defensive, he is very active and can block some shots. His pro position may be at SF, but like some others in the draft, is caught between positions due to size considerations. However, his work ethic is right up there and he should be able to adjust at either position. Could be a late 1st rounder, or a steal in the 2nd.

Often can draw a foul and hit the free throws. He is as close to a "go-to" guy as UK has had since the time of Mashburn. excellent with assists, especially when he is not scoring well himself. very good rebounder for his size. very good ball-handling (I've heard some folks knock him on this account, but I think he has NBA-guard-class ball handling abilities already). Pretty good in making steals. very good free throw shooter (was once excellent, but a couple of letdown performances this season reduced this somewhat). Weak points: occasionally streaky shooting, and he doesn't know when to stop sometimes when he's behind. can overcommit on dribble penetration and get trapped. can forget to play team ball at times. Can play in an immature fashion when not shooting well. tends to want to shoot the 3 more often that coaches want him to (although this may not be a liability in the pros. Still, his 3 point shooting percentage is streaky). Worse he tries to shoot it when closely guarded ("in your face!") instead of always using his screens. appears to be a trash talker, which may not hurt him in the NBA but which I count as a liability. His talking and anger have occasionally cost him technical fouls. Probable NBA position: can play either shooting guard or small forward, with greater probabilities for the latter. If he could only develop a little more consistency with his 3 point shot (which occasionally can be excellent), he could play either position equally well. Scout: Jeffrey N.

With ODU's (and the CAA's) best player (Odell Hodge) hurt for the year, Sessoms really stepped it up and lead ODU to the CAA league championship, the NCAA and an upset over heavily favored Villanova. Sessoms is also a very good rebounder for his size. Sessoms has the skills to play SG in the NBA but needs to work on his ballhandling and cut down the turnovers. Sessoms is not a great defensive player but at 6-7 with good quickness, he can be if he works at it. Sessoms was invited to the Desert Classic and was a starter for the Pacific team. Look for Sessoms to be a potential second rounder and stick with some NBA team.

He declared for the NBA Draft this month citing that he "did all he could do" at SIU. However, talk has surfaced since his decision that Carr did not have the grades to continue at SIU. As a freshman, playing in the shadows of 1993 MVC Player of the Year Ashraf Amaya, Carr averaged 3.9 points and 3.5 rebounds for the Salukis. He shot 59 percent from the floor that season. Carr then blossomed as a sophomore, scoring 14.1 points and pulling down 6.6 boards per contest. This past year at SIU, Carr averaged 21.9 points and 7.3 rebounds on his way to the Missouri Valley Conference's MVP Award. The Salukis were knocked out of the NCAA Tournament's first round by Syracuse in the Midwest Regional. Carr is a serious scoring threat inside, but will his height hinder his scoring ability at the next level? To be sure, the MVC is not the ACC. Carr has an OK outside shot, but needs to develop more consistency with it. Consistency is Carr's biggest obstacle. His own coach, Rich Herrin, on several occasions said that Carr must become a more consistent player. While he had great stats this past season, that statement might reflect more on Carr's attitude than anything else. Some team with veteran experience may be willing to use a second round pick on Carr in the upcoming NBA Draft. If not, he is a likely candidate to play overseas. If he does stick in the NBA, it will be on the end of someone's bench.

Everything he has accomplished he has earned. He went from the player who made people cringe when he had the ball in his freshman and sophomore seasons to the player everyone wanted to have the ball in a tight situation as a senoir. Ray doesn't have great shooting ability. He scores most of his points driving to the hoop. His senoir year he did develop a reliable jumper, and hit over 75% of his free throws. His first three seasons, he was not a scorer, but when Michigan needed point production out of him his senoir year he responded, including a 28 point game, the highest point total of any Michigan player in a single game this year, in his final game as a Wolverine. In addition to scoring, Ray is a good rebounder and a good passer. He could be faulted for turnover problems. Ray leaves no doubt that he is a great defender. He constantly harrasses his man, and can defend both quicker players and bigger players. He usually drew the toughest defensive assignments during his career. With the duo of King and Jackson on defense, Michigan managed the lowest FG% defense in Big Ten history (holding opponents to under 40%). He prevents a player from driving on him, and is usually tight enough to keep the other team from passing to his man. Overall, Ray has developed into a very good player. He has worked hard to improve his game, and was Michigan's best player this year when many thought King would lead the team. Not NBA starting material, but could develop into a solid player.

Workmanlike, he worked his way by his senior year into one of the better PFs in the league. Never flashy, but always a contributer. Offense---> Strengths: Good mid-range jumpshooter, taking the three when available (about 30-35% from that range). Solid but unspectacular post moves. Good scorer on the offensive glass. Good hands. Doesn't turn the ball over much. Weaknesses: Ball handling is a problem, and doesn't really have any moves out on the floor -- instead settling for jumpers. Streaky from the line. Often not assertive enough on the offensive end. Defense--> Strengths: Solid man defender in the post. Only got torched by tweeners like Ed O'Bannon. Good shot blocker -- excellent timing. Rebounding machine. Weaknesses: Footspeed. Questionable ability to guard some big SFs like he'll have to do in the pros. Impact: The kind of player you'd want coming off the bench. Someone who'll come in the game, give you 15-18 solid minutes get some tough rebounds, and inspire people by hard work. Also a level head that'll serve as a good example. Definitely a keeper somewhere. Predicted draft position: Early-mid 2nd round.

I can tell you that he is of the Danilovic (who's NBA bound with the Heat) mold. A great motivator, penetrator and shooter. He is NOT a small forward, and I see from your post, that the NBA scouts are making the same mistake as with Toni Kukoc, and ignoring his natural position. Kukoc is a 3, and he can play 2 an 1 also. He is not a 4. Look at the problems the Bulls are having now, because of their scouting folly. Bodiroga is a 1, and he can play 2 also. He is a star in Italy, and has helped his team Stefanel Milan, to the Korac Cup final, this year. Expect him to go in the 50's, largely because he is underrated.

This was unfortunate because Gray had suffered a heart attack just after his junior year and worked extremely hard to get himself ready for his senior year. Gray is a big time base line player who is a great finisher. He also has a nice touch around the rim. However he is not a trur small forward but not big enough to play PF. Gray had absolutely great games against Duke (averaging 19.5 pts and shooting 58.6% in 7 career games aginst Duke). On the down side, he has no range and is a horrible FT shooter. Given his health and size, it is doubtful that Gary will be drafted. He might have a CBA career or maybe Europe.

His playing time increased considerably as a junior, when Murray spent much of his time at PF, and Buckley was rarely rested as a senior. Buckley is a tough, versatile defender with good 3-point range and a solid finsher in the open floor. Positives: Good 1-on-1 defender, Buckley was often matched against the opponent's best scorer. Good hustle, good feet, more of a position defender than a guy who gets a ton of steals. A smart complementary player, Buckley was able to provide rebounding and passing as needed to this year's team. Already has NBA range on the 3, and leaping ability and soft touch around the basket make him an asset on the break. Negatives: Skinny, may get pushed around early on. Emotional; had trouble keeping focus at times, although that improved markedly through his senior year. Biggest problem is a limited offensive game. Doesn't put the ball on the floor well facing the basket, hasn't shown much of a pull-up jumper. NBA Prosects: Unlikely to get drafted, he's in the big "might stick somewhere" pool. There are a ton of good players out there in the 6'4" to 6'7" range, and he could get lost in the shuffle. If he sticks it will be because of his defense impresses coaches. He's used to doing whatever is needed to support stars, and has enough of an offensive game to make a defense pay attention to him, so he might find a role on an NBA team.

At the start of this year, with the addition of heralded freshman Felipe Lopez, he was relegated to the bench. His outstanding play off the bench forced Coach Mahoney to put him back in the starting lineup. James is a gifted face the basket offensive player. At 6-6, he was small forward in college, and has good size for an off guard in the NBA. He can hit three's out to NBA range but he is somewhat inconsistent. He isn't that great a ballhandler as he has a high dribble. He has a good first step and finishes well, but his best shot is the pull up off the dribble. He's not the best defender, but he seems to try hard. He should be taken in the second round, but may go undrafted. If he becomes a more consistent shooter and improves his handle, he can be a good backup in the NBA.
