OT- Cauley-Stein returning

[UconnU]

word is that his injury was far worse than what they led on so he couldn't even work out for scouts...

Interesting development. UK has two top 15 posts coming in next year (Lyles and Towns), and return Cauley-Stein and Marcus Lee with Johnson's decision pending...hard to believe that there is enough PT to go around for that many bigs...someone will have to go.

Add poythress into that group too. Could have probably beena late pick last year now I wouldn't be surprised if he goes undrafted whenever he leaves

He was cited as a guy whose draft stock plummeted by coming back and getting injured. I maintain that he would've been drafted in the same place regardless of his "flag" for back problems. His 2nd year exposed his weaknesses. He struggles against taller, long-armed defenders and his game is mostly below the rim. Let's see how long Embiid and his back problems last.. I guarantee he won't be there at 21.

I recall his injury occurring after the season (or coming public after the season). Sullinger played in 37 games his sophomore year and his measurable stats were very similar to his freshman year stats.

The injury occurred in December. He had back spasms against Duke and got an MRI afterwards that reveled an aggravated disc and he then sat out 2 games. He ended up playing the rest of the year with the injury.

Poythress is the type of player I would love to have on our team next year

A guy who was saved by jumping early was Greg Oden. Got a nice contract before he broke down. That's another reason for going.

Portland must be kicking themselves for taking him before Durant who will go down as one of the 10-15 best players of all time when its said and done.
