Nick Young 04.4.2007 - Updated on 04.18.2007
|
A pure scorer who might have the best mid-range game of any player in the NCAA. Has improved his efficiency remarkably both from the field and behind the arc despite moving from the 4-spot to the wing full time, as well as his slashing game. Still a bit hit or miss in the consistency department, he could stand to upgrade his passing skills considerably. Gets his shot off whenever he wants in college, but it’s not quite clear what his bread and butter will be in the NBA. Played very well in March.
