What's the likelihood Q returns next year?

[57stratdawg]

Am I the only one that thinks it's pretty low? Guess the surgery could cause him to miss some predraft workouts.

100%

Think that most believe he will return next year to play with his brother.

Surgery plus playing with his little brother. I would be totally shocked if he left early.

 

[dawgstudent]

I don't think he is having surgery if what I remember is correct. Howland said most players wait until after their career is over if they can withstand the pain and the surgery is not guaranteed to fix the problem.

What position does he play in the NBA? He's not NBA point guard material at this point and he's small for a 2. I don't think he ever makes it.

99.999%

99.999%.... He is not on any 1st Round projection at this time....Moses Kingsley is the highest ranked SEC player is mid 2nd rounder..

Round 1- You get money
Round 2- You get NBDL or overseas

 

[KurtRambis4]

Nothing is ever

100% certain, but I doubt he leaves.

For one, he isn't projected as a lottery pick, right now.

Also, him playing with his brother is a big factor.

He'd have to have an absolutely incredible year, as in lead the league in scoring, to even consider it.

 

[ShrubDog]

Where would he go?

 

[KurtRambis4]

There are about 4-5 SEC players projected in the 1st, right now*

Moses Kingsley is the highest ranked SEC player is mid 2nd rounder

 

[Dawgs'n'Grizz]

Q wouldn't get drafted this year. I think his best shot at making an NBA team would be to play as a 2 and continue to work on his shot. He's going to have to be a 3 & D guy to make it in the league.

He is 6'4 with smooth athleticism. 6'4 isnt on the tall side of things for a SG, but its certainly doable.

JJ Redick is 6'4 with the persistence of a long distance runner, but hardly athletic(neither smooth or twitchy).

Reminder- the team we play tonight is still in the SEC.

 

[Talldawg21]

Fox and Monk who we will see tonight are both projected in top 10 in this years draft. Robert Williams from A&M is also projected first round. If A&M had a brain they would have given him the ball every time last weekend.

 

[KurtRambis4]

While 6'4" is

certainly on the small side for a 2G, I think he could certainly handle it.

He's more athletic than people give him credit for, to me.
