that last layin he had, as soon as he caught it above foul line- i told my son it would be an easy layup. when he gets space and a lane he is unstoppable imo. thats why guys get up in his grille like when he had the elbow. teams are also starting to anticipate his spin left move in lane. but he will only get better!It does, but not when you're his size and that athletic. Grant is a freak.
Grant really needs to stay another year. He has way too much too develop still. If he stays he can easily be a top 5 guy if not top 3 next year.If Grant did not have the family background in the pros, do you still think he would be a high draft pick, based only on his play thus far in his stay at SU?

Where to start...outside shooting, dribble drive while under control, being able to take a guy off the dribble and a little more toughness on the defensive end. I'm not trying to not pick, just what I see when watching him play. I think he can be really special, he's just not there yet.
So if he's projected in the lottery already what's the point in his case? He can improve in the NBA or even the off season. He's got a lot of work to do before he's a finished project, along with 95% of the other players getting drafted. Lottery picks who stay in school don't always pan out for the best. Lack of improvement, injury, and a few other factors that can really cost these kids millions of dollars. sullenger and McGary are two recent examples of where this can be a really bad thing for guys to stay.
If you're a lottery pick already, what is the reason you would stay in school?

I'm not saying it's cut and dry, but in his case the negatives really look to outweigh the positives for him to stay.
