It has been confirmed that Oklahoma State junior guard JamesOn Curry early-entry application was submitted before the April 29th deadline. NBA VP of Communications said "It was misplaced", and he is eligible for the draft. When the list had come out, it was a shock to Curry and others close to him that his name wasn’t on the list, but they immediately got to the bottom of it.
At 6’3,190 pounds he is known for his offensive skills and breaking down defenders in many different ways. He can create his own shot, can score from any spot on the court whether it be from the perimeter, three point line, or slashing to the rim. He looks just like Richard Hamilton when he plays without the ball, he runs the court well in transition, he is good on either side hitting pull up jumpers off the dribble, and he also does well separating from defenders.
He is a great ball-handler with great passing skills, and rarely turns the ball over. He does a great job of stealing and deflecting the ball, but still could become a better defender. He has a high basketball IQ, is real good under pressure having strong mental toughness. JamesOn has good court awareness, and he continues to improve his game using his physical skills and will no doubt be a contributer on an NBA team.
The league doesn’t have many players of his niche like I mentioned before the Richard Hamilton type player, other examples are players like Jamal Crawford, Allen Iverson, and Kevin Martin. JamesOn Curry could go anywhere from a second round pick to undrafted, but he will be on an NBA squad in the future.
