Yes, we all know that the 2011 NBA Draft was one of the weakest in years, due to the potential (I wouldn't call it potential anymore,) lockout. On the bright side, the 2012 draft class looks loaded. We'll take a look at a few of the potential players, and we'll start at the top of the board, starting with...
Andre Drummond (Committed to UCONN)
Height: 6'10"
Weight: 275 lbs.
Wingspan: 7'5"
Strengths
- Athleticism and Size
- Basketball Skills
- High Basketball IQ
- Great ball skills and handles for a big man
Weaknesses
- Doesn't always play hard
- Doesn't use his size to his advantage, preferring to play in the perimeter
- Motivation
This kid has the potential to be great, and what I mean by great, is top 3 big men in the league. He has all the tools that's needed in a dominating big man. He has size, athleticism, quickness, and skills to be the top player of the draft. Players like him don't come along very often, and the team that has the top pick should seriously consider drafting him. Though he sometimes floats along the perimeter instead of playing inside, that will all change playing with Jim Calhoun. The only BIG question mark, does he have the motivation?
Best Case Scenario
- A bigger Kevin Garnett
- More skillful Greg Monroe
Worst Case Scenario
- Derrick Coleman
