What's new

Following potential 2012 draftees

I could see White and Hayward as interchangeable as a point forward. White could be a beast off the bench. I could see him being very physical with the bigger SF's in the league. He is a safe pick in the late lottery.

He's a load. On one play against UK (and he had MANY), he pulled down a big rebound, ran the floor coast-to-coast, between several defenders, and had a monster slam .. he ran back down the court, taunting the UK crowd, yelling, 'I'm the best player!!!'

famous last words, lol.

We must draft him now.

Wonder if the Jazz would be willing to draft. The last player we got who had mental issues was Kirk Snyder......
 
I would say a White/Lillard draft would be pretty exciting. Both could bust, but if they both panned out would add huge dimensions to the Jazz.

I like that thought. Players that have passing ability appeal to me. White and Lillard both seem to have that as well as Burks and Hayward.

I would imagine our starting unit being Lillard, Burks, Hayward, Favors, Kanter. Then have White come off the bench and run the Point-Forward with whoever the 2nd unit is. Our team would have enough passing to influence Kanter and Favors to become good passers as well.

He appears to be a terrible shooter though, only shooting 50% from the foul line.
 
Improving as a jump shooter would benefit White significantly and add another dimension to his offensive game. He's attempting just over one jumper per game so far this season and connecting on a poor 24% of those attempts, to go along with an abysmal 51% from the free throw line.

From DX about his shooting.

Also question his work ethic and how much he really loves playing basketball.

His FT% sucks, which I hate. However, he's shooting 50% from the field, as the only real threat on his team, playing in the Big12. Also, his 3pt shooting % is the same as Brad Beal and JLamb.

Either Whites is good or those two suck.

Yeah, but White only takes a 3 pointer once every 3 games, or .4 times per game.

Not to sound like a ****. I'm just saying, if you've watched Royce play these past 5 or 6 weeks .. you'd just say DAMN. He was the most impressive player UK's played against this year.
