| Scheyer, Jon | Duke | 6'6" | 180 | PG, SG | SR. | Among the smartest and most trusted players we've seen is Jon Scheyer. Scheyer is an accurate shooter and good passer that makes consistently intelligent decisions on the floor. As a 'team-first' guy he scored 18.6 points and dished five assists per game this season. His overall athleticism is below average relative to the NBA but he uses his ball fake well and his release on his shot is "just quick enough". He can be mistaken as just a jump shooter but he will scrap. ...Unselfish. Right handed but he uses his off-hand (left) well …As a very good shooter - he prepares himself for a shot before he ever touches the ball. ...Excellent free throw shooter. ...He executes like a pro. Excellent in the pick and roll. Smart. Smart. Smart. ...Like a coach on the floor. A finalist for the Oscar Robertson Trophy, Bob Cousy Award and Lowe's Senior Class Award. …Named MVP of the 2009 ACC Tournament. Is Scheyer athletic enough to have an NBA career? I'm not sure. But he is smart, he can shoot, and he won a National Championship. If I'm going to give benefit of the doubt to anyone - it's a guy like Jon Scheyer. |
Where do I expect Scheyer to be taken? He most likely will not be drafted.
Our best advice: In 2003 - James Singleton went undrafted. We had him as the 33rd pick in `03.
Our worst advice: In 2003 - We had Troy Bell listed 12th. Bell was taken 16th by Boston. He is now in the Italian League.
