Just can’t see how he’s a lock 1st rounder with that shot. Get how amazing all his other attributes are, but NBA is a put the ball in the basket proposition and he just doesn’t do that.I still can't see him being guaranteed a first round since he is a such a bad shooter, also can't create his own shot, and the game has evolved to where that is a hard thing to overcome but if anyone can it would be AJ with his skillset. He is doing the smart thing testing it out. It would be foolish if he didn't as he was showing in some mock drafts in the first round after the tournament.
Yup. He will dominate. His motor is unrivaled.He’s going to open a lot of eyes at the combine scrimmages. Best of luck Andre, and UConn nation will support whatever decision you make!
Athletically and as a person he'll for sure kill it but he's the type of player you really see his value during games as a connector. Making the right read, doing something instinctually and athletically that nobody else can do. The question is does a team love his film, athleticism, and him as a person enough to overlook his deficiencies which will most likely show in the individual and three on three workouts.Just seems like the kind of guy who kills it during the pre-draft process. I'm sure some team picking at the end of the first round will fall in love with him.

Despite a bad shooting night, RW is light years ahead in shooting. I hope I’m wrong, but Dre will have problems getting his shot off In the nba. Maybe he changes his technique over the summer.Watched the Sun/Clippers the other night. And Westbrook reminded me of Dre. All over the court with elite athleticism, tremendous energy, high level defender, incredible passer, tough rebounder, but RW had a really tough night shooting (3-19) and the Suns left him uncovered at the arc. His line was very DRE-like. 9 pts, 11 boards, 8 assists. His team won.
Westbrook is 6-3, 200 to AJ's 6-6, 210. You might find this series an interesting watch.
He is not light years ahead of him as a shooter. Russ is literally the worst 3pt shooter in NBA history with a minimum of 3000 attempts, and he’s kind of progressively getting worse.Despite a bad shooting night, RW is light years ahead in shooting. I hope I’m wrong, but Dre will have problems getting his shot off In the nba. Maybe he changes his technique over the summer.
he goes if he is a second rounder. Second round picks are much more valuable these days with Two way contracts. And, to sign second rounders you don’t need cap space or an exception anymore.Would be malpractice to not at least see if he’ll be a first rounder
