Seth Lundy can shoot it

More of the highly ranked PG's should play the combine scrimmages. It seems so easy for a good PG to standout if you are just a capable ball-handler who can make simple decisions. Bailey, a guy with limited PG experience, looks good just doing the basic things but it really stands out in a scrimmage setting.
Ben Shepperd is showing out. Just made an incredible full court bounce pass and has 8 points.
The best way to describe Jordan Walsh's offensive game is cringe.

glad he's playing well. i've been on the seth lundy train since i watched him for the first time in about february. when i saw his elite measurements, that was all i needed. he'd be a great pick at 28
Haven’t been able to watch. Has he been that bad?

yesterday he was so bad on offense i was embarrassed for him. i haven't watched today yet.
He has had some drives into the paint into nothing that he turned into fouls because he's long/athletic, but they were lucky. He also had a drive into a post pivot turn around fadeaway from about 10' that he airballed by an extreme amount.
I think he might be a smart player, but he has no idea how to score in a half-court setting (and he had a charge in transition because he has absolutely no ability to control himself in space with the ball)
I think Walsh could be playable in a few years, but he should just return to school IMO unless he wants to live in the G-League on a 2-way deal.
Ben Sheppard has looked great today
I still like Walsh a lot. He shows potential. Just wish he had shot confidence, because I dont think his set shot is that bad, but he hates it. Really needs to figure out who he is offensively and once he does that (which will involve shooting it better) he could be pretty good. Would be hesitant to draft him at 28 though. Would rather him return to school.

I just want to point out I was the first to talk about him on this board. I ain’t neva wrong.
Really disappointed in Omari Moore. Dude was completely invisible in both games after putting up the best shooting drill stats. Just no assertiveness and got lost in the sauce.

he was damn good at belmont. he's no fluke.
He looks quick. Not great length, but he's very light on his feet.
Are combine games usually this high scoring? Hard to remember, but this feels like the best combine basketball of all time from a ball movement perspective. Not a lot of hero ball out there. I recall much more hero ball in past years and that led to lower scoring games.

looking at that boxscore, pretty good floor game for walsh with 7 rebs and 5 assists - even though he didn't make many, he managed to get up 11 shots and knocked down his FTs. seems like there is definitely hope for him, but as cy keeps saying, probably just not ready yet for this level.
