| Millsap, Elijah | UAB | 6'6" | 210 | SG | Jr. | Elijah Millsap played two seasons at Louisiana-Lafayette before transferring to UAB. He goes hard. He slashes to the basket and can take contact and finish. ...Averaged 16.1 points per game, and a whopping 9.5 rebounds per contest as a guard! He is one of only two guards to rank among the top 40 players in rebounding in Division I. Millsap is the brother of Utah Jazz star Paul Millsap. ...Elijah - is not much of a playmaker with more than two turnovers for every one assist in his career. ...He is also a poor foul shooter at 63% (career). His deep shooting is poop too. In 2009-10 he was 19-79 (24%) from beyond the college arc. ...Seems to me what we really have here is a 6'5" Power Forward that has some handles. And if that is the case - give me more skilled yet equally as athletic players such as Marqus Blakely, Robert Glenn, and Alex Franklin before Millsap. |
Where do I expect Millsap to be taken? He most likely will go undrafted.
Our best advice: In 2002 - the 27th pick was Chris Jeffries. We said - "take Carlos Boozer".
Our worst advice: In 2004 - the 27th pick was Sasha Vujacic. We said - "take P.J. Ramos".
