Delonte West - St. Josephs - Jr. 6'3" 183 lb. - SG, PG
West is scary good. He can shoot with accuracy, and also pass very well. A smart, smart, player. He takes the available space and never seems ruffled. I like Delonte West. He shot is great because of his tremendous follow through. ...He does the little things; a control tap, splits the double team, runs the pick and roll. Always calm and cool. ...As a sophomore suffered a stress fracture of the right fibula. Born 07/26/83.
West reminds me of Chris Mullin in the way he plays the game. He is a deadly accurate shooter, and a true basketball player. He makes his team better. To me, he, and Ricky Minard are the two most underrated players in this draft. I could make a case for West as high as number 14 in the first round. Ultimately, I list him #21. Most mock drafts we've seen have him early in the second round.
