He's 6'6 with shoes and a short wingspan. At 20 years old (21 before the season starts), he hasn't done anything. He ain't going in the 1st round unless someone makes a mistake, imo.

Can you source that 6'6"? I've seen him marketed recently as 6'7", and haven;t been able to find any recent measurements. We'll know on Wednesday anyway.

I've been trying to figure it out. Martin's not near the ball handler Ledo is. The closest one I've been able to think of is Jamal Crawford with an extra inch or two both in terms of height and vertical leap.

Since when is a wingspan longer than your height a short one? He's going to make a GM look really smart...he reminds me a bit of Brandon Roy.

He's going to be the most controversial pick in this draft I think

Watch out for Ricardo Ledo. He has worked out in Boston, Minnesota, Denver and Memphis and the word from all four teams was that he was very impressive. With his size, skill and shooting ability, he's poised for a significant rise in the rankings on our next Big Board. With Indiana's Lance Stephenson (see here for Stephenson's ordeal) thriving right now, teams believe Ledo, who didn't log a single minute in college playing time for Providence, might be able to make a similar change.
