NBA Comparison: Jose Calderon/Steve Nash

Strengths: One of the purest point guards to come around in a while His vision and ability to deliver precise passes make him the ultimate distributor Has good size for the position, allowing him to survey the court over top of defenses A great and natural feel for the game allows him to see plays before they materialize, keeping him one step ahead of the opposition He is extremely good at maintaining his composure when operating in the pick and roll, he does not panic when the defense converges, but rather shows patience and waits to make his reads Loves to split the hedge on a high ball screen to get into the paint Has a wide repertoire of moves off the dribble Knows how to incorporate head, pass and shot fakes to get defenders off balance and to keep them guessing Uses change of speed and direction extremely well, always mixing up the moves and staying unpredictable His shot has come a long way in the last year or so, even to the point where he has become a serious threat from the outside Defesively, he plays with a lot of energy and puts in a great effort to put pressure on the opposing ball handlers Quick hands and terrific anticipation allow him to get his hands on a lot of balls His game is mature beyond his years due to the fact that he has played on the top senior level for a long time He has been on the draft radar for some years and has been able to maintain a fairly high level of play Has shown that he can perform on a big stage by being a key member of the Spanish National team in the Olympics

Weaknesses: Has good speed but lacks the great explosiveness that top tier point guards in the league possses He is forced to shoot high amount of attempts in the paint because his marginal leaping ability makes it difficult for him to finish around the basket Heavily depends on the pick and roll to create his opportunities and does not show a great ability to break down defenders in ISO situations Has gotten better at taking whats open, but his pass first mentality still gets him into trouble as he passes up open shots His jumper is still not a finished product by any means Because it takes him a bit to get his feet set, and his release point is fairly low he still looks like a set shooter Has battled some injuries over the last year, which raises the question of durability and whether he will be able to handle the rigors of an 82 game season His game has been up and down this season after coming back from his injury (Had a better overall season last year) His performance on the international scene does not guarantee his game will translate well to the NBA Is also a bit of a risk because of his high buyout and because he has hinted at staying overseas if he doesnt go to the right team

NEW YORK (AP)—The Washington Wizards selected John Wall with the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft Thursday.

The SEC player of the year is the first Kentucky player ever chosen first overall. He goes to a Washington team hoping to quickly bounce back after a disastrous season that included Gilbert Arenas’(notes) season-ending suspension for bringing guns into the team locker room.

Wall could replace Arenas as the Wizards’ point guard, or perhaps play alongside him in a potential high-scoring backcourt.

After his name was announced to begin the draft, Wall hugged family members and donned a blue Wizards cap before climbing onto the stage to shake commissioner David Stern’s hand.

The Philadelphia 76ers took national player of the year Evan Turner from Ohio State at No. 2. The notoriously tough Philadelphia fans at Madison Square Garden liked the choice, loudly cheering and chanting “Evan Turner! Evan Turner!”

NBA Comparison: PJ Brown

Strengths: Few players his size run the court as well as he does Because of this he regularly beats opposing forwards down the court for quick scores Possesses refined post footwork Combine that with Splitters body control and you have someone who has no trouble getting his shot off in the post An above average rebounder Uses his quickness to obtain most rebounds in and out of his position Double teams rarely effect him due to his above average court vision Excels in the high post as he can use his quick first step to drive past most defenders Possess a very good basketball IQ, understands the game His superb mobility enables him to run the fast break with no problems and finish Moves well without the ball and will work to get open Defensively he is blessed with above average lateral movement and long arms Possesses excellent hands that are both quick and soft which helps him on both sides of the ball Shows soft touch around the basket where he can make a good amount of shots via drop-ins, hooks, or put backs.

Weaknesses: Not a prolific offensive player Despite his height and quickness, Splitter is not much of a shot blocker Tends to get frustrated when played physically in the low post This has led some to question his mental toughness Throughout his career he has had health trouble so theres the concern that he could be an injury prone player in the NBAs 82 game schedule Must improve on his upper body strength. How big he can actually get is questionable This impacts him offensively when he fails to finish after contact occurs Despite being one of the most talented players on the court, he tends to defer to teammates and lacks aggressiveness Surprisingly he shows mediocre consistency shooting from mid-range Not a great free throw shooter Still prone to fundamental lapses as he doesnt always secure rebounds which enable easy steals for opposing teams Tends to get out-muscled for rebounding position by stronger opposing forwards.

Strengths: He has played in DKV Joventut for their second team (PRAT – LEB League) most of the year, also had a couple of games in Euroleague and ACB (few minutes) … Athletic and long player with great all-around physical ability … Plays SF most of the time in PRAT -LEB League … Eyenga has improved his overall game tremendously (offensively and defensively) in the past year … His basketball IQ and understanding of the game has risen … Now he is a better decision maker with the ball on the floor and attacks the basket much more (used to be raw) … Has great elevation when going for rebounds or alley-oop situations (he can really get up there) … Eyenga has developed solid shooting mechanics with a nice follow-through and good elevation on his jump-shot; last year he looked like he couldnt shoot the ball at all and now is looking very good at times (PRATA-LEB League). Possesses solid outside range out to 3pt (34% from 3PT). If he hits first few shots from the perimeter in a row he gets very confident and he is very difficult to guard … Eyenga has good balance in his offensive game and almost the same number of outside shots as well as free-throws … Solid free-throw shooter at 72 % from the free-throw line … Good rebounder at both ends of the floor due to his length and athleticism … Can block shots well due to his length and timing … Has all attributes to develop into a very good all-around player in the near future.

Weaknesses: Played most of the time at the PF in past few years and juniors, so still getting familiar with the wing … Lacks experience and fundamentals for NBA … Eyenga is still a raw player offensively and still has trouble beating defenders off the dribble … He is too predictable at times and drives to his right most of the time … He still has lots of room to improve in these areas … Relies too much on his jumping ability when going up for rebounds, needs to work on his positioning and fundamentals … Defensively he has to improve (right now he relies on his athleticism) … Eyenga still needs to work on his jump-shot; must become a more consistent outside shooter and better 3pt shooter as well in order to be offensive threat at the next level …
