John Calipari continued his borderline stalking of Nerlens Noel by planting himself underneath the baseline for much of the day which instantly ups the intensity in the gym. (BTW Nerlens had 9 points, 17 rebounds, 6 assists & 4 blocks)

Highlights at 50 & 1:45
Hakim Warrick, 14 Pts, 6 Rebs, 3 Assists


Hakim Warrick, PF (SF)? - Hakim had a few really productive games for the Suns last season, and he also had a few really bad ones. Everyone knows what Warrick does well...Dunk! He was a pretty decent pick and roll option for the second unit and his offensive output wasn't bad, but his rebounding was only average and his defense was downright disappointing. Last season, Hakim began working on his jumper more so that he could become more than a one-dimensional offensive player. He had mixed results shooting the ball last season, but in the scrimmage last week, Warrick's shot looked much smoother and more natural and he was hitting his shots with confidence. Hakim worked on his shot during the long off-season, and it seems to have paid off. This may be important for him to find his way into the rotation, because with the addition of Morris along with Frye, Hakim could find himself the odd man out at the PF spot before long.

Warrick could compete for a spot in the rotation as a hybrid PF/SF though if he has truly added a reliable jump shot to his game. He will also need to prove that he can be quick enough to guard opposing SF's, but if he can manage to do so he would create a nice match-up problem for the other team. He is tall but extremely skinny and therefore finds it difficult to guard other PF's, but he could fare much better against smaller opponents and could possibly take advantage of his size in that role. His rebounding as a PF per 36min wasn't bad at 7.6 on average, but as a SF his rebounding would be an added bonus and his length could give us an advantage. Ultimately, there's no way to know how Gentry will use Warrick this season. But it's a safe bet to expect him to see some minutes at the PF spot, especially early on. However, Hakim may have to find a way to contribute at both the PF and SF positions if he wants to remain a part of the rotation.

Agree, he has gotten a lot of good competition during the summer AAU season but seeing those highlights shows what a joke it is for him to be playing that level of ball. All it can do is develop bad habits.
