Hearing a lot of people on here talking about Dion Waiters out of Cuse recently.. He's one of the few top 15 prospects I don't know much about.. Someone care to enlighten me?

he's a fricking beast

but seriously:

Positives

Scoring machine
Powerful drivers, overpowers the competition
Relentlessly attacks the rim
Plays with confidence
Very good ball handler
Sneaky athlete
Has some potential to play point guard

Negatives

Lacks a consistent jumper
Undersized for his position

I think he is a James Harden type of player. As in better off the bench put starter abilities

i think he is very comparable to james harden. not nearly as good of a shooter, but that is who i think of when i watch waiters.

some say dwade, but he doesn't have near the explosiveness/leaping ability that wade does. then again, who does ?

A lot of people are saying he is Eric Gordon 2.0.


He will likely be the 2nd or 3rd guard taken.

This is who I want the hornets to get the most. I heard he has a guarantee from a team though...possibly as high as #4 to cleveland

He think more DWade than Gordon, just in terms of play style.

Milw want him at 7 if they can get up there and he's still there. Crazy thing is they supposedly would still keep Jennings til deadline. They like Henson too there. GS probably wont do the deal w them though.
