Jared Sullinger: Draft Profile

At first I thoug Sullinger was just a mediocer player that was overated. As his college career carried on I found that he is completely dirty and a dominant force in the post. Earlier this year I went to watch two Sweet 16 games one featuring Sullinger and Ohio State. When I watched the game I realized that it almost too easy for him. He ended up with a double double with 23 points and 11 rebounds. It almost seemed that he didn't even have to try. At the end of the season, Sullinger ended up averaging 17.6 points per game and 9.3 rebounds per game. He stepped up his game in moments when his team needed him. Sullinger had 25 games with at least 15 points and 17 games with at least ten rebounds. He is predicted to go in the mid first round to the Houston Rockets. From his freshman to his sophmore year he was able to get into much better shape but he could still need a few more hours in the gym to get into NBA shape. I believe that Sullinger has had such a dominant two years in college that he should be drafted in the early to mid first round. The best fit for Sullinger would be on the Milwaukee Bucks. They were just traded star pointguard/ shooting guard, Monta Ellis. There really isn't anyone else on that team so if Sullinger goes there and develops into a true NBA player than Ellis will have someone to pass to and the Bucks will be on the right track. I have a good feeling about Sullinger going to the NBA but he will have to work very hard to be a premier player in the league.
