I don't see any Ellis in him at all. He reminds me of some past Uconn pgs that can't really score, but can keep the dribble alive. He is like the tyreke brown(think that's his name) dude they had running point a few years ago

Taliek brown.
I think shabazz will be a better offensive player.

although they don't play alike at all, Napier does physically look a lot like Ellis on the court. Similar skin tone, both smaller guards, they both move in a similar fashion, both get in their defensive stance the same exact way. If you just glance it sort of looks like Ellis out there haha.

I've liked this dude in the tourney so far. 7'4" wingspan? wtf. That's Dwight territory, or at least where he was measured at.

I expect him to stay but if he doesn't he's probably going top 9. IMO.

Any idea where he's going to go if he declares this year? One of the more impressive freshmen this tourney if not the most

with the lack of SGs in the draft and in the league, i dont see how he makes it past lotto.
kid just has so much poise and savvy to his game. great effort as well.

He should definitely declare. Alec Burks is the only other first round prospect at shooting guard.

Next years SG class is just as think but why wait, he'd surely be a top 15 pick.

Does he remind anyone else of Corey Brewer when he was at Florida? He's a little shorter than Brewer but might have a better game off the dribble. It's hard to tell how his offensive game will develop.

no, not at all. only in body type. thats it. their skill, temperament, athleticism and overall games couldnt be any more different.

Reminds me of Paul George with better handles.

Or maybe the shooting guard version of what Nicolas Batum was supposed to become, if that makes any sense?

Kid is super fluid and smooth.

Been meaning to post in this thread for a minute.

I think he's got star written all over him if he could put on a little weight and stay healthy.

Heady player to boot.

To people talking about him earlier, honestly, Napier has looked awful to me every time I've seen him. Lamb looks damn good.

Nic Batum is exactly who he reminds me of.

Long, thin, poised, good potential as a defender, catch and shoot 3pt shooter, great instincts for the game.

he reminds me of the suns version of joe johnson, with less handle.
or a more athletic version of steve smith.

I don't have a link, but Lamb is 100% returning to UConn next year.

He should declare, but he won't.

I'm just glad one of these yearly Briggs "Remember this name: (insert random new UConn player here)" finally caught on.
