The big freshman out of Uconn thinks he can take his talents to the next level. Over the season he averaged 10.2 points per game and 7.7 rebounds per game. He had 14 games with at least 8 rebounds and had 17 games with at least 12 points. His best game of the season was probably when he lead the Huskies to a 64-57 victory against fellow Big East team, West Virginia. Weighing at a woping 270 pounds and standing at 6 feet 10 inches, he has an NBA body. Along with my companion, Zach Lisman, Drummond should have stayed for at least another year to refine his skills. Drummond is a tremendous talent with untapped potential. If he stayed for next year he would be able to dominate most big men and work on his game for when he plays in the NBA. He is projected to be selected in the early first round to the Sacramento Kings. If he did go to the strugling Kings he could add on to the contributions of DeMarcus Cousins. I will not place my prediction because I am going to make a few entries about my NBA mock draft. The other teams that are projected to be in the hunt are teams like the Toronto Raptors, Detroit Pistons and the Portland Trail Blazers. All of those teams could use some help in pretty much all departments such as big men and guards. Drummonds season was very inconsistent but ended up doing pretty well this year. He should defineatly work on his game for one more season in the NCAA so he can be a force right away in the NBA. He is just another one of those guys who has a great skill set but could use just one more year of playing college ball.
