And if you have seen him shoot, you know why. Respert is the latest in a line of very good guards produced by Jud Heathcoate at Michigan State. Were it not for his size, there would be no question of Respert's ability to have an immediate impact in the NBA. Offensively, Respert's primary strength is his shooting skill. He can hit a shot from just about anywhere -- including far beyond the three- point stripe. Shawn is not of those one-dimensional shooters, though, and moves constantly while on the offensive half of the court, trying to rub off his defender or gain the split second he needs to launch a shot. He is agood ballhandler and an above average passer who didn't always get to show off these skills due to his role as the primary (sometimes, only) scorer for MSU. Shawn is not especially quick, owing to a serious knee injury suffered during his last year in high school, and at 6'-3" can be blanketed by taller defenders. No one says much about Respert's defense, but he is an above average defender who double-teams well. He compensated for his size against bigger off-guards by teaming with Eric Snow to play the trapping defense Heathcoate is known for as well as any tandem MSU has ever had. Respert's speed is a minus, but he compensates with great conditioning that allows him to be always on the move. What are Respert's chances in the NBA? At 6'-3", he may will have a lot of trouble playing the 2 spot to which he is accustomed, especially on the defensive side of the ball. His all-around skills make him a likely candidate for conversion to point guard. He can dribble, drive, defend quicker men if surrounded with sufficient defensive support. His shot will not suffer from the rugged nature of the NBA game. His relative lack of speed will hurt him at the point, but he should be able to overcome many of the challenges he will face against all but the quickest opponents. Even though though I am a big Respert fan, I'm a bit leery to make him a lottery pick, though a good team looking for a big potential payoff might be willing to gamble on him. Scout: Eugene WallingfordCraig Simpson - Usenet Draft CommissionerMore Poop: A problem for Respert is that he was measured at 6' 1.5" not 6-3. He has never played PG at any level and 6'1" shooting guards are rare. He still has a lot of skills and should be a lottery pick but this will hurt him some.

Actually, Sura was a overall better player his senior year although his stats were way down and he did not make All-ACC. He really cut down on his bone-head passes and became a leader. The drop in stats probably had more to do with him trying to carry a weak FSU team. Offensively, Sura is considered a good shooter but really he is more of a scorer (his three point shooting is in the low 30's). Sura is excellent on the break as a finisher and was much improved at leading it this year. He still has a tendency to try to make to fancy of a pass that leads to some ugly turnovers. He did rack up a lot of assists, but again way to many turnovers. In the NBA he should be stuck in the 2 spot where he won't have as many ball handling chores. Defensively, Sura has never been a standout. He does not really work hard at it and tends to get lost from his man while tring to anticipate a potential steal. There is also a concern about his attitude and willings to work on D. However, Sura is an excellent rebounder for a 6-4 player. Sura figures to be a mid-first round draft pick who could put up big numbers. If he is willing to work on his defense and decision making, Sura could be a big time player. Scout: Craig Simpson More Poop: Sura is FSU's all time leading scorer. He also is highly productive in assists, but has been well known for making some really dumb passes. He is a scorer, no doubt, and that is the mentality he takes into every game. He is not affraid to play inside, and is a very good rebounder. His speed and quickness make him a dangerous defender, and a penetrator on offense. His shooting is streaky at best, but when he's ON, he's unstoppable. His size allows him to defend larger and smaller players. Fre thow shooting isnt so good. Did not develope as far as he could have as a college payer, do to poor coaching at FSU, but should (especially with looser reffing in the NBA) be able to really sparkle at the next level. He is very close to becoming a "complete" playere. He can score, defend, rebund, pass, etc... All he needs is a good work ethic and the discipline a good coach can give. Sura will be a steal for ANY team that picks him.

He's a streak shooter, but over the past few years, it seems they had him shooting from outside more, and moving to the basket less, which I felt was wasting his strengths. He's a pretty good rebounder. He has very quick hands, and was excellent at stealing the ball and deflecting passes. He's not a bad defensive player, either. The comparisons with Scottie Pippen are pretty accurate, I think, at least on a potential basis. He used to be very skinny, but added quite a bit of weight, and strength, throughout his college career. He is the first player I've seen who seemed to get a bit worse from his sophomore to junior to senior years, so his stock certainly has fallen a bit.

He combines mental toughness with athletic ability and became a big time college scorer. He responded to moving from shooting from small forward to shooting guard by having his best year (junior). Offensively, Moten is a great finisher who has become a three point threat. He has good size for an NBA shooting guard and, although not extremely athletic, is athletic enough. Moten took more outside shots this year which explains why his overall percentage went down, however he became a better three point threat. He also was a good clutch shooter hitting several end of game shots. Moten needs to improve his ballhandling and passing to become an NBA caliber guard. Moten needs a lot of work defensively. Not particularly strong, this will hurt him in the pros. Moten will be a mid to late first round pick. He will need much work to hard to become an NBA starter. He *must* improve his defense and ballhandling but is a hard worker and under the right coach, he should do well.

He can score both inside and out. He has worked hard to become a better ballhandler (and needs to work harder still on that). This is important to him because he played small forward in college but will have to make the move to shooting guard in the NBA. He has the skills to do this. His weakness's are a lack of quickness and defensive ability. Quick NBA guards will kill him at present. Kleinschmidt helped himself in the Desert Classic averaging 8 points a game. He won the Desert Classic three point contest with more then double the score of the second place finisher.

His clutch shooting in the 1993 NCAA tournament earned him the MVP and the reputation of being a clutch player. In his junior year, Donald got off to one of the best years ever by a UNC player (averaging over 23 points a game and about 55% shooting). This was clearly his best stretch as a player. Then the injuries came and Donald was never the same. This year Donald was, for the most part, injury free however the makeup of the team was different and Donalds role changed considerably. With the slower more inside oriented UNC teams of Montross and Salvadori, Williams was expected to be the main scorer (being the only player who could create his own shot). This year Williams became the 3rd option behind Stackhouse and Wallace and it had an effect on him, particularly early in the year when he really forced his shot. He got more comfortable as the year went on and his stats were much improved in the ACC (44.2% and 42.1). Offensively Donald has become a very good all around player. Now able to go to his left (something he could not do his 1st three years), he regularly beat opponents off the dribble with good ballhandling skills and a very quick dribble. He has a good pullup and has a very quick release. He is a good enough ball handler that he should be able to play some point. He really does need to work on his consistency, Donald can put up some horrid shooting games. Defensively, Donald is *much* improved over his sophomore year. This year he was considered the best defensive guard on the team and usally guarded the better scorer of the other team. This is the one area that Donald improved on over his 4 years. The question mark is going to be his size. At 6'3" he might have trouble with the bigger shooting guards in the league. He should watch a lot of tape of Joe Dumars to see a similar build play great D in the NBA. Hersey Hawkins is another good role model for Donald. There was an article in the Raleigh News and Observer about Donald in the NBA draft. They quoted a scout as saying that had Donald left after his sophomore year he would have been a top 10 pick, now he might only be a second rounder. This to me is silly. Take away the 6 game stretch in the NCAA (1993) and Donald is more inconsistent then he was that year. Overall Williams is a so much better overall player now that it is not even close when compared to his sophomore year. I expect Donald to be a late first rounder.

After hitting the winning shot to propel Arkansas to the NCAA championship, Thurman was considered a sure lottery pick. This year scouts are questioning his quickness, his ability to create his own shot and just what position he will play in the NBA (SF or SG). Thruman is a three time All-SEC. Offensively, Thurman is primarily a three point shooter with almost half of his shot attempts being threes. This has led some scouts to question his offensive skills. Shooting stand still threes in college does not translate well to the pros. Thurman did not show much in the the way of breaking down the defender and penetrating a defense. Thurman, like most Arkansas players, is a very aggressive defensive player. He overplays and tries to go for a lot of steals. He could have problems in the NBA trying to guard bigger small forwards or quicker shooting guards. As I said before, last year Thurman would have been a lottery pick. This year, well he will still be a first rounder but probably not as high as he thought he would have gone. I think mid to late first round is a good place for him. Scout: Craig Simpson More Poop: Thurman will always be remembered as the guy who hit "the shot" that sank Duke in the 1994 NCAA tournament. It was just one of the many clutch shots that Thurman hit throughout his career at Arkansas. Thurman is a tremendous shooter, certainly one that can hit the NBA 3 with ease -- and beyond. He is a very smooth player and is able to create his own shot. A concern with Thurman is that he does suffer from being a "tweener" -- i.e. perhaps too small for a SF, and not quick enough to be a SG. He may not be quick enough to guard some of the faster SGs in the NBA. But at 6-7, he does have good size for the SG spot. Thurman might just be at this point a poor man's Reggie Miller -- he even has the trash talking down -- and he may even match Reggie's range. Thurman could be as high as a mid 1st round pick, but likely is a late 1st rounder or 2nd round pick.

One of the four sons of former NBA great Rick Barry, many people feel that Brent has definite NBA potential. Yet, many people don't know who he is. Barry has never been to a single postseason game in college--not the NCAA's, and not the NIT. Instead, he has toiled for Oregon State in relative obscurity. What is known about Barry is this: Brent's primary strengths are his outstanding defense, his exceptional passing and court vision, and his great athleticism. Barry's long arms make him an excellent thief and shot- blocker (one year he was one of the PAC-10 leaders in blocked shots; amazing coming from a 6'6" forward). His passes are nothing short of brilliant, sometimes too much so--he often surprises teammates with passes out of nowhere, which end up sailing out of bounds, past the surprised recipient. His dunks are highlight film material--Barry is proof that the title of a recent Wesley Snipes/Woody Harrelson movie is incorrect. :) In addition to these qualities, Barry is an excellent floor leader, and a "good citizen", both on and off the court. The weakest part of Barry's game has long been his jumpshot; however, he has made tremendous strides in this regard in his senior year. Barry has always been an excellent foul shooter--early in his career, he shot free throws underhanded, like his father; recently he has switched to a more conventional style. In addition, Barry played small forward in college--due to his size, he will likely switch to the backcourt in the NBA--how this change will affect him is unknown. Unfortunately, though, Barry spent his entire career playing for a mediocre team and a mediocre coach. Some will question whether he can maintain his numbers when he is no longer the "big fish in a small pond." He did face quality opposition in the Pac-10; however, the Beavers usually lost to same. Others will question whether his skinny frame will hold up to the constant bumping and banging that he will face in the NBA. For this reason, his chances of being selected are very much dependent on his performance in pre-draft camps. Overall, I think that Barry can succeed in the NBA. (But then, what do I know?) I see him playing a game very much similar to Penny Hardaway or Scottie Pippen (I'm not saying he will be anywhere near as GOOD, but his game will be similar), as all three are excellent defenders, passers, and athletes. If his jumpshot continues to blossom, I think Barry will end up being a quite solid pro. He has the talent. He has the ethic. He only needs a chance to prove himself. I think Barry will likely be drafted somewhere between the mid-first round and the mid-second round. Depends very much, as I said above, on his performance in the camps. Scout: Scott Johnson More Poop: Barry is the real deal. Unlike his other brothers, he will one day be a starter in the pros. The question is where he will play. With hand checking not allowed, he can definately be a point guard. My favorite player of all time is Magic so you have to believe me when I say that Barry is the second best passer in modern day basketball. With tremendous vision, height, and long arms, Barry can create anything. With a set shot, Barry can shoot the three. Even more important, the NBA was made for him. He can run the break by filling the lanes or leading it himself. If he is fouled, he can make the shot. Defense if the question mark. Although he can block shots and steal passes, it's not clear how he will do against smaller, quicker guards. He'll probably match up against 2's. Looking down the draft order, I see many clubs that need a point guard. Although, he's considered a two, I can see several teams jump on him. He should be in the top 15. Scott Haskins (OSU) was taken high by the Pacers as a 7 ft. novelty so I don't see anyone shying away from Barry. He will bring fans to the games.

He has very good quickness and is able to break down defenses on his own. Rencher's biggest problems is that he is just as apt to shoot you out of a game as well as shoot you in a game. For a shooter of his caliber, 29% from three point land is not very good. He is also not a very good free throw shooter. Rencher will probably have some trouble guarding NBA shooting guards at 6-3 (really more like 6-1) although he was a good defender at Texas. He is also a very good rebounder for his size and gets a lot of steals. Rencher was a starter for the Central team at the Desert Classic and averaged 7.5 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assits a game. Rencher will probably be a second rounder and could become a good 6th man providing instant offense coming off the bench.

Scout: Teresa Merklin More Poop: Rutherford became the main outside threat durning OSU's run to the Final Four. He has become a great outside shooter when he has time to get set. UCLA was able to expose his inability to create his own shot. He has worked hard to become a outstanding defender and has improved his passing. However he still needs to work on his ballhandling.

In his senior year, with a chance to finally shine, he did not respond as well as many had anticipated. Still, he was a leader on the team, and, with fellow senoir Ray Jackson, usually scored the most and had the most assists. He showed amazing ability in his last game as a Wolverine, scoring 23, picking up 17 rebounds and dishing out 8 assists. Many UM fans wonder where all of that offense had been all season. Offensively, Jimmy struggled with his outside shot. He also had difficulty driving through the defense to get a lay-up. He showed that he could drive, but was not consistent. He averaged slightly less than 3 assists, and does a good job of distributing the ball. He is still a scorer, and was in double figures in all but 2 games this season. It should be remembered also that he was more comfortable in past years when Michigan ran more. This year was more a half-court offense, and Jimmy definitely excels in the open court. He is a clutch shooter, tipping in the winning basket at the buzzer against UNC in the 1992 Rainbow Classic, and hitting a memorable three at the buzzer to give Michigan a come from behind win against Iowa last year. He is a spectacular dunker, and a great finisher, and can run with anyone. All in all, offensively he looked more comfortable as a third option. To make it in the NBA he will have to find his outside shot, which eluded him all season long. There is nothing to complain about defensively. He has been Michigan's best defensive player his entire career, and is second in steals in Michigan history. He shadows a man always, and is never caught in the wrong position. He can be counted on to shut down the oppositions shooting guard. To be a good NBA player, King will have to find a reliable shot. He has nothing to worry about defensively, he is quick and smart and can stick to anyone. Everyone has always known he has great running, leaping and dunking ability, but is it possible he still hasn't bloomed into the superstar he was expected to be? He could be a late bloomer who never had the chance to showcase his stuff, or he may never find his game. Scout: Evan Makela More Poop: King did not have a good Portsmouth camp and was not invited to the Desert Classic. This will hurt him in the draft.

His arrival at Colorado was heralded as the beginning of a turn-around for CU men's basketball. Unfortunately, he was never surrounded with much of a supporting cast. In his four years at Colorado, Boyce was the team leader in scoring, field goal and free throw attempts, minutes played, and assists. His natural offensive position is at shooting guard; however Boyce often played at the point guard spot, because Colorado had no legitimate point guard, and Colorado needed the ball in Boyce's hands to have a winning chance. Boyce has 3pt shooting range, as well as outstanding ability to beat a defender one-on-one. His mediocre shooting percentage is much more a reflection on his attempting to carry the team rather than his true shooting ability. He handles the ball very well, and is a solid if unspectacular passer. His high turnover rate is indicative of his "take over the team" role. Boyce rebounds well from the guard spot, and is an excellent leaper. He is a good defensive player, often guarding the opponent's top scorer. As a player in the pro ranks, Boyce will need to improve his field goal shooting, something which should come with not having to carry a team. Defensively, he'll in general be fine guarding bigger guards, but will need to work on handling smaller, quicker point guards. Overall, Boyce will be a solid backcourt addition to a team that selects him. The best sort of team for him would be one where he can gain reasonable playing time and experience with a veteran, established backcourt. Other factors: Boyce broke his right (?) leg in his last game, a Big 8 tournament game. He had struggled with minor shoulder and ankle injuries as a senior, and was just five points from becoming the first player in Colorado history to score 2,000 career points when he broke the leg. He had surgery to repair the break and is reported to be healing well. Boyce is Colorado's all-time leading scorer, and was a member of the Big 8 All Conference 1st or 2nd teams in his career.

This did hurt some of his numbers (all of his shooting percentages were way down this year), but he was able to increase his points per game. McMahan was also Vanderbilts best defensive player.

granted medical redshirt in 92-93 Poop: Kim is one of the most hard-working and courageous players ever to grace a basketball court. After a truly impressive freshman performance in which he played shooting guard on Tulane's fabled "posse" (a group of five players that were substituted in as a group) and was 2nd on the team in scoring, his leg (tibia) was badly broken (lengthwise) in the preseason NIT against Indiana. He was declared a medical redshirt for the remainder of his sophomore year and doctors were not certain he would ever again walk without a limp, let alone play basketball. But through pure will and character, Lewis did come back to play three more years. While he never managed to regain his pre-injury form or reach his full potential (otherwise you wouldn't need me to tell you about him...), Kim has been a major contributor on both defense and offense for the past two seasons. The degree of maturity and character which he developed through his injury and recovery have made Kim an impressive leader on and off the court. Kim's offensive skills have not fully recovered from his freshman season. He's lost a good inch or two off of his vertical leap, and this really shows up on his jumpshot. Nonetheless, Lewis is a good perimeter player with very good shot selection and ball handling skills. Unfortunately, his full-court speed is lacking and he retains some hesitancy on offense, particularly on fast breaks (which is how he broke his leg). His ability to shoot threes remains, but he is not really a standout in this category. Defense is Kim's forte. Tulane coach Perry Clark places great emphasis on defense, and Kim is one of his proteges. Lewis became Tulane's all-time steal leader this year. His lack of real speed hasn't interfered with his quickness, and he has an uncanny ability to anticipate passes. He is an extremely inttelligent player and can often outguess opponents. His only defensive weakness is against the fast break, where once again his speed is something of a hindrance. All the same, Kim can play half court defense with anyone. Unfortunately the quicker pace and open style of the NBA may create problems. Kim's NBA prospects are marginal at best. He has the potential to play backup somewhere as a defensive specialist and may yet recover his offensive abilities. His perimeter skills can back up his defense. His maturity and intelligence give him some promise as a deep reserve. But his inconsistent offense, lack of speed, and hesitancy, all the after effects of what should have been a career ending injury, tend to dictate against an NBA career. It is distinctly unlikely, and unfortunate, that Kim will be drafted, but if he does play in the pros Kim may well pleasantly surprise some team a few years down the road. This won't happen, however, unless Kim can finally shake off the residual mental effects of his injury. He made great strides in this direction his senior year, but some significant work remains to be done. I'm not sure any NBA team is willing to help Lewis do this work or exercise the patience that will be necessary.
