Remember that Andre Jackson kid? He couldn’t shoot it coming in as a frosh but did so many other things well plus a great athlete and was highly rated and sure was a bum…

Hakim Warrick was absolutely not ranked in the top 30.

Sorry, he was 31, hence the “ish”

You look at that list and not many of them really amounted to much. Maybe that’s hope for some of our “below the radar” kids!

Either you can shoot or you can’t.

Jerami Grant says otherwise. Michael Jordan shot 17% from 3 his first year. I think he improved, but I could be mistaken.

Ok, that’s two out of every 200 who can’t shoot. Just improving doesn’t make you a good shooter. Shooters have great touch and shoot a soft shot. You can tell very quickly who has a mechanical and heavy shot. They can improve, but will never become great shooters. Stevie Thompson improved his shooting, but was still a terrible shooter. Scorers and shooters are not the same thing.

The fact that the Carolina schools didn’t recruit him is my biggest fear. He’s a good athlete. I’m not sure if he basketball skills are all there.

I’m not down on him. He does a lot of things well and he’s a clutch, go-to player on his team. But watching both games and highlights, his scoring comes 90% from dunks and layups. In transition, cherry-picking, and some drives, but that’s high school stuff. College teams don’t give up that volume of those types of shots. He’s not a power player, it’s all finesse. Not like a Warrick, though. He doesn’t do it in half court sets and post play. It’s like he’s Durantish, if you took away the jumper.

He has decent form on the jumper—but as noted, in reels, you don’t see percentages/missed shots. He has time to develop and he has good hands. I’m just saying he’ll have to adjust and evolve because the way he scores in HS, it won’t be quite like that in college. Potential is there for something special.

Not even sure where he’s coming up with this. He’s ranked 27 on the 247 composite and 26 on their site. So if he’s ranked 48 someplace he must be ranked like 10 another.

Sadiq is five stars and No. 15 nationally, per ESPN's latest update.
