But yeah, he can score in a variety of ways.

30 pts (10/21 FG, 4/11 3FG, 6/7 FT), 3 assists, 5 rebs in 40 mins for Kemba. I think he can run an offense better than Gordon, but yeah he can really take over games with his scoring. Looks like starting PG material to me, he'd be a very good pickup if he's available with that Miami pick.


I have to think that he'll rise up the draft boards, similar to the way Jonny Flynn did.

He's a very intense player, too. So, he's got intangibles on top of scoring ability. I think he can be a great 6th man in the NBA.

Wow, Kemba's last 3 games has averaged 34 PTS / 54 FG%! kind of reminds me of Ford this guy is quick and a better shooter! would like to see his passing skills more though.

Brandon Knight on now... Kyrie at 10. Also, Gaddy is playing for Washington, he could be an interesting prospect to watch as well.

Something I wanted to mention about Kyrie..that not sure if people know...he's about as good with his left hand as he is his right...he can go to either side...thats pretty impressive for a college freshman.

This is a face-paced game, Knight off to a quick start with 6 pts already

Move over Harrison Barnes and Perry Jones, because you've got company. Terrence Jones has amazing ability. The dude just grabbed a rebound, and lead the fastbreak, finding Brandon Knight for a layup.

Wow.

Wow.

Is he a 3 or a 4 though? He's been putting up some beastly performances so far for the Wildcats.

Jones is a 3...I've been very enticed by him over the past 2 weeks. The kid has real nice athleticism, NBA body and can do a lot on the court. Not sure where he'll go by the end of the year but I would have no problem getting him.

I think Jones is a tweener, but he seems cabable of playing both the SF and PF. He has good size, athleticism, and quickness. Very intriguing player. ESPN is hyping this kid up big time lol.

Knight is so much more scoring guard than PG at this stage. Good body for a freshman though.
