Cody Zeller
will hurt him at all. He's one of the fastest Cs in college. He has about a 35 inch vertical leap. He was rumored to have been doing 25+ reps on the bench press. He'll probably measure 6'11 1/2" with a 6'11" wing span.
As for the top pick, a lot will depend on Noel and Muhammad's offensive progression, and how far IU makes it in the tourney.
i dont think he has a shot @ #1 pick unless indiana wins it all and he is POY and i really dont think either is going to happen, he will be a good player in the nba but i mean IMO someone like jeff withey is just as good and he def wont be #1 pick u know? lol. i dont know i guess anythinggg is possible but i see the #1 pick going to nerelens noel. he just looks the part
I think he has a chance to be #1. He plays on a great team so his stats don't blow anyone away. But he gets 16-17 pts on 8-9 shots per game. He is very efficient. Plus he gets 1.5 block and 1.5 steals a game. It could come down to team need between him and Shabazz, but i think if i'm picking a big i'm taking Zeller over Noel
If you can guarantee an Andrew Bogut then you will take him with the number one pick in this draft (obviously without the injuries).
Skillwise they a fairly similar although Zeller will never be the rim protector Bogut is. He was actually leading the league in blocks for a while a few years back, Zeller will never do anything like that although he is not a bad defender.
Are u guys really selled on him bein the TOP PICK in the 2013 Draft?
I know he can ball and he has alot of tools to be o good player in the league, but I believe the draft combine may hurt his stock... Thoughts?
