He looks good but needs to do a better job of finding the open man, help is coming over and he doesn’t know where it came from. Tunnel vision is pretty big flaw for a pro guard. Tough shots in college are impossible shots in the pros, need to make the extra pass.bUt I tHoUgHt hE wAsN't rEaDy ?
His full game highlights
GMs voted Bouknight as the 3rd best pick in the draft.
I think this is right and a very good move by the Hornets. Playing point will help Bouk to know where everyone is one the court. It force feeds him.I don't buy in the least that he can't pass the ball, but I don't think point is his long-term position. I believe the Hornets staff see's how dynamic he can be & want to get him on the floor to spell as many positions as possible off the bench to start. I hope his defense continues to improve as well - he could be a monster 2-way player if that end develops. Excited for him!
Another rookie who can just flat out score is Cam Thomas. Unfortunately he on a team where he might not get much of a shotI know it’s nothing new, but it continues to impress me how effortlessly James can score the ball. I feel like every time he plays it feels like he’s have a quiet night and then all of a sudden you look down and he has an efficient 20 points. He is just an unreal bucket getter. As Terry said his game will translate well to NBA play.
who ever said PG was his long term position? even if they hadnt drafted lamelo he would not be playing PGI don't buy in the least that he can't pass the ball, but I don't think point is his long-term position
To think we could have had both on the same team if we simply ponied up many hundreds of thousands of dollarsAnother rookie who can just flat out score is Cam Thomas. Unfortunately he on a team where he might not get much of a shot
They’re playing him more at point right now than the two. I agree that it’s not his long term position, but Charlotte seems to want him there for some of his minutes. Who knows - long as he gets a lot of minutes, it’s fine by me.who ever said PG was his long term position? even if they hadnt drafted lamelo he would not be playing PG
i've been prepping for my draft too. his espn projections are:I'm looking at possibly drafting Bouknight as my rookie. Anyone want to hazard a guess on minutes/points/3's per game? I can spend a lot more to pick up Cunningham, Green, Stubbs, but think Bouk may be a value pick.

I'd go for Green. Hornets want to make the playoffs and I'm a little worried about how infrequently he played with the main rotation. He only played 5 minutes of the first 31 minutes of the game. That should go up, but Green is guaranteed to get minutes and shots.I am in a fantasy NBA league, head to head, auction draft, where we are required to play a rookie. It is a great innovation and makes the draft much more interesting.
