 I’m not sure if you all remember,the Juco transfer that was on St.Johns early in the year and putting up monsterous numbers against everyone that they had played.His name was Nurideen Lindsey.A lot of people were buzzing about him getting drafted this year.It would of been great for him and his family after all they have been threw,with the murder of his older brother and a few of his close friends occuring in such a short period of time.He could of got his family out of that environment this year. I personally feel he would be a first round pick,had he stayed at St.Johns and continued to play the way he was playing.He was aggresive,strong,went to the basket on any and everyone,could defend and pass.His main flaw is his shooting.Also he had good size for a combo guard.What do you guys think would of happened if he stay at SJ

 I remember that this site had him as an early second round pick early in the season while he was at St. John’s. He wasn’t really putting up monsterous numbers like you said, but they were respectable. I think it would have been a mistake for him to enter this year though because of his shooting. If he improves his shooting for next season at Rider I think he will be looking at the first round for next season. That is a big “if” though. He also needs to improve his free throw shooting. I was at the game against Texas A&M when he missed two free throws with like 1.2 left on the clock.

Only 6-1, terrible shooter, loves to attack the basket, coming out of JUCO he was rated the top prospect while Pierre Jackson was #2, some were saying he could have went from JUCO to the NBA, he led his team to Hutchinson,Kansas to compete for the national title.

While every college scout said he was big time, NBA scouts said he wasn’t ready for the NBA.

 Yeah I did hear the talk about him going from Juco to the NBA. Nuri is really good but like yall said his shooting is horrible.
