can some1 tell me that year he declared for the draft? I know he wasnt drafted mainly coz of maturity and lack of games played. But i found his prfile on nbadraft.net though google but cant find the mockdraft with his name in it. I want to see where aprox he was put into mockdrafts?

I think he declared for the '02 draft. I'm not sure though.

How old is this guy anyway?

He's currently playing here in the PBA. He came in as a replacement import. I've only managed to watch one of his games though wherein he was matched up against former Chicago Bull Scott Burell. Ran circles round him although they lost.

From what I understand this guy is somewhat of a NY playground legend?
I've been reading up on this guy and I think that if he didn't pass up on his college eligibility he really could have been one of the next big things.

He's got the skills and the hops but I think he has some difficulties in dribbling ball but I might be wrong because he seems to be like that.
Unfortunately he is playing with some fellow young local players and is currently last in the standings.

I think it is sad that he is 21 years old and is playing professional ball overseas. I think if he went to some college ball maybe his skills would improve.

i dont think it had anything to do with his game! he was the first BIG time HS baller. LBJ first got noticed when he played against him and did a good job on D and on O. From what i undestand he didnt really play alot of HS games either, his grades were low and he constantly changed HSs. So he tried playing alot of ALL-Star games insted.
Obviously his getting undrafted had nothing to do with his game coz u can see what kind of players do get drafted! i just wanted to know where in the draft he was predicted to go!?
