     I dont get it. He would make more money with an education. He has very little chance of success in the NBA with that skill set.

       I think he’s a kid that had no interest in being anything other than a professional basketball player. An education would be great, but it’s his decision and I think he can definitely make a living as a professional basketball player…… it just may have to be in another country.  He’d struggle to make a NBA rotation, but I think he could make good money overseas. Wish him the best of luck. Hope one of the Hamilton triplet (Jordan Hamilton, Daniel Hamilton, Isaac Hamilton) can make it into a NBA rotation.

     He has an intriguing skill-set with his ability to handle and pass the ball for a player his size. However, he’s a small 6-8 ( not very good length and not particularly strong) and hes not a great athlete. He can get to the basket fairly well but struggles to finish. Hes just not a good perimeter shooter right now at all and unless he greatly develops that aspect of his game it’s unlikely he’ll be playing in the NBA anytime soon.

     He must have been hearing late 1st early 2nd but the NBA doesn’t really have room for weak wings that can’t shoot. To find a spot he has to get stronger and shoot more consistent even then his upside is more of that of a role player rather then a starter or featured player in my opinion.

    Homeboy has some talent, however he’s not ready. He will end up like his brothers, playing over-seas and bouncing between the D-League and 10 days NBA contacts.

    I really like his versatility, but he needs to hone that shot.

    There’s definitely room in the NBA for guys with his size and skillset, but it’s going to be a lot harder for him to find minutes on an NBA roster when he’s laying bricks from outside of 15 feet. Probably and early 2nd round pick, but because of his versatility, I feel he’s worth a guaranteed contract in that range. I’d invest in him for a 2-3 year contract at a 2nd round rate to see how he develops.

    I felt he had mid first round potential next season, but that was depending on his shot development.

     Don’t get why scouts aren’t higher on this kid, his feel for the game allows him to fit in basically any system, he can shoot off the catch and more than capable creating offense for himself and others. Defense is probably the biggest question but his size gives him potential.
