NBA Draft Prospect Jakarr Sampson
6-8 – Small Forward – St. Johns
Terrific athlete with a high ceiling but a lot of work do to. Maybe the best dunker in college basketball.
Pros
A big time athlete with crazy hops, exceptional speed and good stop, start ability. Has the physical tools to blossom into a high level player in the NBA.
Attacks the rim as well as any player in college ball and is a sensational dunker. Uses his hops well to score in the lane and has great hang time. Solid rebounder and interior defender.
Is built like LeBron James.
Cons
Lacks an outside shot and is not a threat from downtown. Turnover prone and needs to gain a better understanding of timing and playing within the flow of the offense. Is a poor free throw shooter.
Projection: mid first to early second round pick in the 2014 or 2015 NBA Draft
