1996 Day 70 Draft Rookie Report

Post by Zyme »

1. Indiana Pacers (from Grizzlies) |
Allen Iverson | PG | 21 | 6'0'' | 165 | B | B- | C+ | B- | D | A
Allen Iverson | PG | 21 | 6'0'' | 165 | B+ | B- | C+ | B | D+ | A
Allen Iverson | PG | Games | 53 | MIN | 26.4 | PTS | 12.5 | REB | 2.5 | APG | 3.4 | SPG | 1.5 | BPG | 0.1 | ToPG | 2.8 | FG % | 0.419 | FT % | 0.665 | 3PT% | 0.357
+3 | +1 In, +1 Def, +1 REB

The first pick out of Georgetown has surprised many with how careful he has been compared to college with the ball. He has a deadly outside shot but needs to do work on his FT in order to breakout as a true star in this league

2. Indiana Pacers (from Pacers) |
Ray Allen | SG | 21 | 6'5'' | 205 | C+ | B+ | C+ | B- | D+ | A
Ray Allen | SG | 21 | 6'5'' | 205 | C+ | A- | C+ | B+ | D+ | A
Ray Allen | SG | Games | 53 | MIN | 31.7 | PTS | 16.3 | REB | 3.5 | APG | 2 | SPG | 1.8 | BPG | 0.2 | ToPG | 1.7 | FG % | 0.448 | FT % | 0.779 | 3PT% | 0.350
+3 | +1 Out, +2 Def

Ray Ray has come in and lived up to his hype. A cool 16 ppg, nearly 2 steals and only 1.7 TOs. He is a deadly outside sniper and will drive defenses crazy out there for years to come.

3. Vancouver Grizzlies (from Pacers) |
Peja Stojakovic | SF | 19 | 6'10'' | 229 | C+ | B+ | C | C+ | D | A
Peja Stojakovic | SF | 19 | 6'10'' | 229 | B- | B+ | C | C | D+ | A
Peja Stojakovic | SF | Games | 52 | MIN | 26.6 | PTS | 11 | REB | 4.4 | APG | 2.1 | SPG | 0.8 | BPG | 0.2 | ToPG | 1.7 | FG % | 0.436 | FT % | 0.778 | 3PT% | 0.414
+1 | +1 In, -1 Def, +1 Reb

Balanced swingman has underperformed compared to what many projected pre draft. While he is careful with the ball and excellent from out deep, he needs to do serious work on his finishing to take his game to next level.

4. New York Knicks |
Steve Nash | PG | 22 | 6'3'' | 195 | C+ | B- | B- | C+ | D | A
Steve Nash | PG | 22 | 6'3'' | 195 | C+ | B | A- | C+ | D | A
Steve Nash | PG | Games | 52 | MIN | 39.4 | PTS | 15.8 | REB | 3.2 | APG | 7.1 | SPG | 1.7 | BPG | 0.1 | ToPG | 3.3 | FG % | 0.455 | FT % | 0.818 | 3PT% | 0.378
+4 | +1 Out, +3 Hand

The second PG off the board in the draft, the kid from Joeburg, South Africa seems to be cut from the classic pass first mold. He has been keeping his turnovers in check while putting in just shy of 16 ppg and 2 steals. He need to continue to progress on his defensive footwork and cut down on his flashy passes that are leading to run outs the other way.

5. Atlanta Hawks |
Marcus Camby | C | 22 | 6'11'' | 220 | C+ | D+ | D+ | B | B | A
Marcus Camby | C | 22 | 6'11'' | 220 | B- | D+ | D+ | B+ | B+ | A
Marcus Camby | C | Games | 50 | MIN | 18 | PTS | 7.9 | REB | 6.2 | APG | 0.7 | SPG | 0.9 | BPG | 0.6 | ToPG | 0.9 | FG % | 0.409 | FT % | 0.653 | 3PT% | 0
+3 | +1 In, +1 Def, +1 Reb
The big man out of NH has been getting great stats in backup minutes. 16/12/2spg/1.2 bpg per 36 he looks poised to be the next great post man in the league, if he can ever get his free throw and midrange game figured out.

6. Houston Rockets (from SuperSonics) |
Stephon Marbury | PG | 19 | 6'2'' | 180 | B | C | B- | C+ | D | A
Stephon Marbury | PG | 19 | 6'2'' | 180 | B | C+ | B- | C+ | D- | B
Stephon Marbury | PG | Games | 33 | MIN | 14.7 | PTS | 5.3 | REB | 1.2 | APG | 2.7 | SPG | 0.4 | BPG | 0 | ToPG | 1.3 | FG % | 0.472 | FT % | 0.64 | 3PT% | 0.2
+0 | +1 Out, -1 REB

Three PGs out in the first first six picks and you find Marbury. Needs to put some serious work into his outside game in order to take his game to the next level. He is careful with the ball at around 3 per 36 turnovers.

7. Toronto Raptors |
Lorenzen Wright | C | 21 | 6'11'' | 225 | C+ | D+ | D | C+ | C+ | A
Lorenzen Wright | C | 21 | 6'11'' | 225 | B- | D+ | D+ | B- | B- | A
Lorenzen Wright | C | Games | 54 | MIN | 29.8 | PTS | 11.1 | REB | 8.9 | APG | 1.7 | SPG | 0.6 | BPG | 1.4 | ToPG | 1.4 | FG % | 0.396 | FT % | 0.63 | 3PT% | 0
+4 | +1 In, +1 Hands, +1 Def, +1 Reb

He progressed well enough in camp but this really hasn't translated to the floor. His shooting has been abysmal but he has showed flashes of good footwork and holding down the glass. Needs to hit the freethrow stripe hard in the offseason

8. Chicago Bulls |
Antoine Walker | PF | 20 | 6'8'' | 224 | B+ | B | C | B | C+ | C
Antoine Walker | PF | 20 | 6'8'' | 224 | B+ | B+ | C | B | C+ | C
Antoine Walker | PF | Games | 48 | MIN | 31.8 | PTS | 23.7 | REB | 8.2 | APG | 2.6 | SPG | 1.3 | BPG | 0.3 | ToPG | 2.7 | FG % | 0.457 | FT % | 0.813 | 3PT% | 0.443
+1 | +1 Out

If you redrafted tomorrow he would probably be the top pick. Walker has been downright bawler. 24, 8 and 1.3 spg he is a threat from outside, inside and everywhere in between the score. He isn't a superstar tomorrow, he is right now.

9. Golden State Warriors |
Shareef Abdur-Rahim | SF | 20 | 6'9'' | 225 | B- | C | C | B- | C | A
Shareef Abdur-Rahim | SF | 20 | 6'9'' | 225 | B- | C | C | B+ | C+ | A
Shareef Abdur-Rahim | SF | Games | 48 | MIN | 13.3 | PTS | 4.7 | REB | 2.7 | APG | 0.6 | SPG | 0.6 | BPG | 0.2 | ToPG | 0.7 | FG % | 0.492 | FT % | 0.833 | 3PT% | 0.5
+3 | +2 Def, +1 Reb

Shareef has had limited minutes, playing more of a 7th or 8th man minutes, he is putting up an efficient 13 and 7.5 per 36. He needs to step up his scoring or he will be only very solid. Good foundations but room to grow in a ton of categories.

10. Los Angeles Clippers |
Jermaine O'Neal | C | 18 | 6'11'' | 226 | B- | C- | D- | C | C+ | A
Jermaine O'Neal | C | 18 | 6'11'' | 226 | B- | C- | D | C+ | C+ | B
Jermaine O'Neal | C DNP
+2 | +1 Hand, +1 Def

Did not progress much during camp and has yet to see the court, hard to judge at this point but teenagers are always so unpredictable.

11. Portland Trailblazers (from Magic) |
Erick Dampier | C | 21 | 6'11'' | 265 | B- | D | D | B | B | B
Erick Dampier | C | 21 | 6'11'' | 265 | B | D | D | B+ | B+ | B

+3 | +1 In, +1 def, +1 reb
Playing low start minutes, Dampier is showing he has a solid base to build from. He is looking like a 14/12 type of player who collects 2+ blocks. That will keep him on a team for a decade to come.

12. Sacramento Kings |
Samaki Walker | PF | 20 | 6'9'' | 240 | B- | C- | D | B- | B- | B

Outside sniper hasn't sniffed the floor yet, cant make a lot of judgements here.

+2 Out
Limited minutes with 3 TOPG and only 12 ppg per 36. Need to make continued progress to see more of the court.

15. Boston Celtics (from Lakers) |
Derek Fisher | PG | 22 | 6'1'' | 200 | C | B+ | C+ | B | C- | B

+1 Out
Great outside shooter and nearly 2 steals. but is struggling on turnovers in his early career. While he has time left to change course he needs to reign those in or he will be a career backup.

16. Dallas Mavericks |
Ben Wallace | C | 22 | 6'9'' | 240 | C | D+ | F+ | B+ | B | B
Ben Wallace | C | 22 | 6'9'' | 240 | C | D+ | F+ | A- | B+ | A

+1 Def, +1 Reb
He does two things, he rebounds and plays defense. As long as you have offensive players to surround him with he will have along career, just remember to look away when he tries to do anything except dunk the ball, or you may see something for the blooper reel.

17. Utah Jazz (from Cavaliers) |
Priest Lauderdale | C | 23 | 7'4'' | 325 | B+ | C- | D- | B | B | C

+1 def
Solid scorer at 22 ppg and being asked to carry a ton of load for such a young player he has answered the bell. At near .45 he is shooting fine and .67 is not awful (just not good) from the stripe,, he is looking like a bench or third scorer and he will find a spot on a roster for long time to come.

18. Boston Celtics |
Roy Rogers | PF | 23 | 6'10'' | 235 | C+ | B+ | C | C+ | B | C

NC
Getting the role of a top scorer for his team, Rogers is doing enough, just not a lot more. A shift down to SF to play the big 3 man like Kellogg made a career out of may be in order to take his game to next level.

19. Vancouver Grizzlies (from Hornets) |

NC
Very poor midrange shooter, he needs to change somthing dramatically or his game will be forever limited. He fills it up for a 6th man as a solid scorer against the 2nd teamers.

20. Vancouver Grizzlies (from Nuggets) |
Tony Delk | PG | 23 | 6'1'' | 189 | C | B+ | B- | B | C- | C

NC
He does a little of everything but needs to put in more work in the Gym in order to be a better overall player. His lack of progression last offseason makes me concerned he wont get there

21. Indiana Pacers (from Heat) |

+2 | +1 Def, +1 Reb
Malik is putting up 6/10 in 8th man minutes. His midrange game needs work but has a sneaky 3 from the corner that teams keep forgetting about.

22. New Jersey Nets (from Timberwolves) |

+1 Out, +2 Hands, +1 Def

Solid first TC has led to 8th man minutes on a crowded Nets roster. Great shooter from deep and good enough at holding onto the basketball (1.5 steals per 36 nothing to sneeze at either). If he continues his development he could end up a solid backup for a long time to come.

23. Boston Celtics (from Trailblazers) |
Jerome Williams | PF | 23 | 6'9'' | 206 | C+ | C- | C- | B- | C+ | A

Stuck between positions has led J Will do not be able to earn any playing time so far, beyond that hard to judge at this point

+1 def, -1 hands
Limited minutes (9 total) with limited development, not a good look here but hard to judge without the minutes

+1 In, -1 Hands
9/7 in 20 minutes for a later round pick, need to work on his accuracy but has a sneaky 3pt as well.

+1 Out, +1 Hands
Awful midrange shooter but putting in a ton of minutes. Good at avoiding the bad pass. Needs to work on his stroke to continue to get starter minutes.

Bad TC, and a bad shooter anywhere no named beyond the arc, Sasser needs time in the Gym, a lot of it too.

6.4ppg on 29% shooting, sometimes you are glad he is not on your team.

8/9.5 & 2.2 blocks/1.1 steals per 36. Solid bench option

14/5 with a steal and nearly a block thrown in as a starter from the early-mid 2nd, nothing to sneeze at. Looking like a long term rotation option.

8th or 9th man minutes on the Bullets, solid inside game but his midrange post game just isn't there. His rebounding will keep him employed for a long time.

Very poor on the offensive side, but you are paying him for the defense. 3 TO/36 is solid but not exceptional

Very poor shooter, even worse at the stripe, but that's not why you pay him. Maybe the best footwork in the class cleaning the glass.

Solid finishing as a backup, if he keeps playing like this he may force the Nuggets to give him more.

Great outside shooter, not so much from the stripe. He either hits the 3 or finishes up close, in between he either misses the shot or turns the ball over.

Vogel getting crushed...
In fairness, he's a raw project who only saw time when everyone was injured and his shooting is in part because he only took 21 shots (probably all putback attempts)... he's not ready for DASL, but that was clear at the draft... next TC is when we'll know if he is anything or not.

Tornopsky turned out to be a quality flier of a pick.

Had him at the top of my list. Was curious if him being fake outweighed that sweet B outside A potential.

Don't get too attached though. If he's stays at least decent, man's bout to be filed under Chris Smith or Chris Jones. MICHAEL CHO! :(
