Message: [QUOTE="ToolzieFan, post: 3999087, member: 7018"] I thought this passage about Bones Hyland from that same article was interesting: “While projected first-rounders sat out the five-on-five portion, it did offer some players who were firmly thought of as second-rounders or worse a chance to show their wares. Several of them made very positive impressions. The most notable was VCU guard Nah’Shon “Bones” Hyland, who dominated the opening minutes of the first scrimmage — the time when the majority of scouts are paying rapt attention and hadn’t yet turned to their phones or the guy behind them to chitchat — and finished with 17 points, five rebounds and four assists in the one game he played. Hyland stood out not just for this box score, but for his eye test. When he got bigs on switches, he [I]blew [/I]past them, leaving himself acres of space to finish at the rim. It’s pretty easy to envision Lou Williams-type bench scorer scenarios for him, especially after he measured with a 6-9 wingspan, and he may have played himself into the back end of the first round.” As much as I’d love to see Bouknight play on the Warriors, I’m confident he’ll be okay wherever he lands.
