Can someone tell me more about this kid, i only saw him once and it was against maryland and he played well....He is listed as 5-11 and is projected as a 2nd round pick.

Not sure what the knock on him is... He's been a very good college point guard and I think he can be a steal for some NBA team. Struggled last season at the draft camps prompting him a return to school. If UVA can make the 64 tourny and he leads his team well into winning a few games then his stock could rise. Good passer great floor general and natural leader. All qualities you want in your point guard. His size is a problem but special players are able to get by it. I like Singletary and think he will have an NBA career.

He's a great floor general except for his very high rate of turnovers, bad shot selection, dominating of the basketball, and inefficient scoring. Other than that, though, he's Steve Nash.

And something tells me UVA's 15-14 (5-11 conference) record won't get them into the NCAA's.

On that one game i saw i really think he can be a steal in the 2nd round....I just dont know what the knock on him is other than the high turnover rate....

You can read about all the knocks on him here: http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Sea ... etary-448/

There's more than just turnovers.

Am very high on this kid. Plays the game with heart on his sleeve. Great poise nd confidence in his offensive abilities. Ppl always bring up the lack of size nd the high turnover rate part of which is due to his flashy style of play, but almost no other team relies on a single player to even compete w/ the other team more than UVA... he has to play the role of kobe so to speak. Anyone who's watched him play know he's far from a selfish ballhog. He'll break down the defense nd set up his teammate for a beautiful assist but half the time they'll either fumble the pass or miss open shot. I think depending on which team he goes to he'll have a very good career. Definite Steal.

You can make the case that his supporting cast didn't help him much this year, but he's played four seasons at UVA and the story's always been the same. Are you seriously going to try to tell me he had no help last year when he shot 40% and had Reynolds alongside him averaging 18.4 points per game?
