Posted? Didn't see anything on the first page.
Once again, in advance of the NBA draft, I interviewed four NBA scouts and two general managers. In each conversation, I ticked off the names of 50 available college players. (I did not include any international guys, except for Emmanuel Mudiay, who originally committed to play at SMU.) In exchange for their candor, I offered my guys total anonymity.
So basically it's the combined opinions of 4 scouts and 2 GMs, spoken as a single person.
Didn't read through all of them yet. The Chris Walker one was rough...
Um ... no. He doesn’t know how to play. ... I’d be surprised if he gets drafted. He’s just not smart at all picking things up.
On Hollis-Jefferson:
Rondae is 10 times worse than Tony Allen as a shooter.
On Mudiay:
He’ll be at the Brandon Jennings-O.J. Mayo level.
On Upshaw:
We wouldn’t touch him. He has so many issues. ... The problem is, if you crack his head open, nobody has any idea what might roll out of there.
On Aaron White:
If he was 20 instead of 22, he’d be in a better position in the draft. That’s how messed up this thing is.
