No and if that's the case then nobody should have picked him 3 years ago

 

[Reggie]

He'll get drafted because of the North Carolina pedigree that still has many in the NBA enamored but he wont be much more then a bench player at best and will probably be out of the league in a couple of years.

He's got a great head on his shoulders which will help him a lot. I could see him being a rotation guy down the line.

He made the right decision staying in school. Got a degree and he's going to be a good Euroleague PG.

A degree at UNC with the academic fraud that's going on ?

He has a BA in Bicycle Repair

 

[young3000]

Such an ignorant and clueless thread
wasn't even on the draft board after his freshman year
And McAdoo already got a ring

 

[#1 pick]

look at Paige. the guy should have been a high 1st round pick if he left after his freshman year. would he have flamed out in the league like Kendall Marshall before him? Of course.

but at least he would have gotten paid! but Roy being the selfish man he is pressured him to stay and "develop his game." now look at him. smh

I hope he got his passport info together cause he gonna need it and it's one of the sadder cases of a player who over stayed his welcome.

Do ya'll not feel bad for the guy?

I don't recall him ever being touted as a high lotto pick as a frosh.

Now a dude like Dunn prop ally should of just went ahead and went pro...Another recent prospect who I think should of went pro a season before was Marcus Smart...The only player I've seen lately where staying an extra season was good for is Buddy Hield.

No chance in hell he would have been a high first round pick after his freshman year

Right....OP tried to be cute and stumbled out the gate with fugazi info....it was his Sophomore year were he got busy.

Needless to say, he has a spot in the league. His jumper is wet and he's a much better athlete than he's given credit for.

40% from the field and 36% from 3 is wet nowadays? dude hits some big shots, but he is not a consistent shooter at this point at all. He really didn't get any better at all in college since his sophomore year, he just got older.

Or he spent his Junior year playing with plantar faciatis and his Senior year playing the 2 guard against bigger guards. He's a point guard forced to play outta position on offense and defense. The Ingram whiff by UNC put them in a bad spot, just like Tyus leaving put Dook in a bad spot without a point guard and had to convince Thornton to reclassify. He had to adjust his game based on circumstance and all we found out was that he's not a shooting guard. You sound like you're stat watching instead of looking at this in context. You tell me how well would you shoot if you're the only shooting threat teams game plan for? He spent his Sophomore and Junior year as literally the only person in a Carolina jersey that teams respected past 15 feet. The kid can shoot and playing point where he's not the only one being game planned for, I believe he can make a roster in the league.
