NBA Draft Prospect Workout: Shabazz Muhammad and Co."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The Sacramento Kings continued to bring potential picks in for workouts Monday.\u00a0 Shabazz Muhammed headlined an otherwise veteran-laden group.\u00a0 Outside of the UCLA star, every other player at today&#8217;s tryout was 22 years or older.<\/p>\n<p>From the players we are seeing come through, Michael Malone is clearly looking for long defenders to add to this Kings roster. \u00a0Early this draft season, we are seeing top-tier prospects mixed with athletic wings and shot-blocking bigs.\u00a0 It almost feels like Malone is focused more on the second-round pick the Kings hold rather than the seventh overall selection, which to a certain degree makes sense.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:\u00a0 <\/strong><em>While I was not in attendance today, I have seen all the available footage from the workout to make these assessments.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Brandon Davies<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:\u00a0<\/strong>23<\/li>\n<li><strong>Position:<\/strong>\u00a0Forward<\/li>\n<li><strong>College:<\/strong>\u00a0BYU<\/li>\n<li><strong>Height:<\/strong>\u00a06-10<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight:<\/strong>\u00a0242 lbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Ford\u2019s Top 100 Ranking:\u00a0<\/strong>72<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Breakdown:\u00a0<\/strong>High-energy forward with explosive leaping ability, athleticism and a knack for rebounding. \u00a0Must get stronger and refine his offensive skills.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Analysis: <\/strong> At 6-foot-10, 242 lbs., Davies has an NBA body and maybe even an NBA frame, but he is garnering only moderate interest as an NBA prospect.\u00a0 The 23-year-old BYU product is older than many in this draft class, but his production as a senior was solid.\u00a0 What little film available on him today showed that he has nice form on his baseline jumper and that he had very little problem in the post with bigger opponents like Zeke Marshall.<\/p>\n<h3>Elias Harris<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> 23<\/li>\n<li><strong>Position:<\/strong>\u00a0Forward<\/li>\n<li><strong>College:<\/strong>\u00a0Gonzaga<\/li>\n<li><strong>Height:<\/strong>\u00a06-8.5<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight:<\/strong>\u00a0238 lbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Ford\u2019s Top 100 Ranking:\u00a0<\/strong>79<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Breakdown:\u00a0<\/strong>Physical player who runs the floor pretty well. \u00a0Quick, explosive and built like an NBA player. \u00a0Also a good rebounder, but not a particularly refined offensive player. \u00a0Not a strong shooter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Analysis: <\/strong> Harris is a big-time athlete, but even what little we saw of his shooting was not good.\u00a0 His 18-foot jumper starts well below his waist and takes way too long to get off.\u00a0 It&#8217;s tough to imagine a spot in the league for Harris today at his current skill level, especially for a 23-year-old prospect.<\/p>\n<h3>Shabazz Muhammad<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:\u00a0<\/strong>20<\/li>\n<li><strong>Position:<\/strong>\u00a0Forward<\/li>\n<li><strong>College:<\/strong>\u00a0UCLA<\/li>\n<li><strong>Height:<\/strong>\u00a06-6<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight:<\/strong>\u00a0222 lbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Ford\u2019s Top 100 Ranking:\u00a0<\/strong>14<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Breakdown:\u00a0<\/strong>Strong, physical player who can score without dominating the basketball. \u00a0Finishes well at the rim and has good slashing ability. \u00a0Must get better at shooting off the dribble, lacks elite athleticism and is a bit one dimensional. \u00a0Does his talent warrant the number of off-the-court distractions that have clouded his career?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Analysis:\u00a0 <\/strong>Touted as a small-forward, Muhammad is roughly 3\/4-inches taller than <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/e\/evansty01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-www.cowbellkingdom.com\" target=\"_blank\">Tyreke Evans<\/a><\/strong> with nearly the same wingspan and reach.\u00a0 That is where the comparisons end.\u00a0 The left-handed UCLA product doesn&#8217;t have the broad shoulders or muscle definition of Evans and his .8 assists per game are from a different planet.<\/p>\n<p>Known as a pure shooter that struggles to create for himself, Muhammad has a nice release and high-arching jumper.\u00a0 He was accurate in today&#8217;s workout, but it&#8217;s hard to judge a player just off his shooting touch.\u00a0 His skill set is similar to last season&#8217;s No. 7 pick, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/b\/barneha02.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-www.cowbellkingdom.com\" target=\"_blank\">Harrison Barnes<\/a><\/strong>, but he clearly doesn&#8217;t possess the same size as Barnes.\u00a0 He looks more like a shooting guard at the NBA level.<\/p>\n<p>Muhammad&#8217;s interview was very solid.\u00a0 He is bright, engaging and clearly interested in sliding up to the seventh overall pick where the Kings are drafting.\u00a0 Muhammad said he models his game after <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/h\/hardeja01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-www.cowbellkingdom.com\" target=\"_blank\">James Harden<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.basketball-reference.com\/players\/g\/ginobma01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-www.cowbellkingdom.com\" target=\"_blank\">Manu Ginobili<\/a><\/strong>, which is a tough sell.\u00a0 He is neither the passer or off-the-dribble player that those two are.\u00a0 Muhammad struggled a bit to answer questions about the off-the-court issues that have plagued him in the past, but he is now being represented by Bill Duffy, which should help him with some of these distractions.<\/p>\n<h3>Zeke Marshall<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> 22<\/li>\n<li><strong>Position:<\/strong>\u00a0Center<\/li>\n<li><strong>College:<\/strong>\u00a0Akron<\/li>\n<li><strong>Height:<\/strong>\u00a07-0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight:<\/strong>\u00a0235 lbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Ford\u2019s Top 100 Ranking:\u00a0<\/strong>84<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Breakdown: \u00a0<\/strong>Big man who uses his length to enhance his shot-blocking ability. \u00a0Uses size to establish position in the post, but does not have a refined offensive game. \u00a0Questions about his toughness.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Analysis:\u00a0 <\/strong>Marshall is a long, athletic big man who has improved almost across the board every year in college.\u00a0 If the Kings are surfing for a defensive-minded reserve to bring off the bench, you could do worse than a 7-footer who averaged 3.6 blocks per game in just 28 minutes.\u00a0 In what little we saw today, Marshall has a smooth stroke from about 18-feet out, but he looked a bit plodding.<\/p>\n<h3>Trevor Mbakwe<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> 24<\/li>\n<li><strong>Position:<\/strong>\u00a0Forward<\/li>\n<li><strong>College:<\/strong>\u00a0Minnesota<\/li>\n<li><strong>Height:<\/strong>\u00a06-8<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight:<\/strong>\u00a0236 lbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Ford\u2019s Top 100 Ranking: <\/strong>59<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Breakdown:\u00a0<\/strong>Plays physically and with high energy and is an intense rebounder. \u00a0However, undersized for the four spot and is old for his class.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Analysis: <\/strong>Another lanky athlete, Mbakwe is the oldest of the prospects today at 24-years old.\u00a0 At 6-foot-8, the senior out of Minnesota has an insane 7-foot-4 wingspan.\u00a0 Similar to Romero Osby, he has the look of a defensive-minded small forward, but we have very little footage of him from today&#8217;s workout.<\/p>\n<h3>Romero Osby<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> 23<\/li>\n<li><strong>Position:<\/strong>\u00a0Forward<\/li>\n<li><strong>College:<\/strong>\u00a0Oklahoma<\/li>\n<li><strong>Height:<\/strong>\u00a06-7<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight:<\/strong>\u00a0230 lbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chad Ford\u2019s Top 100 Ranking:\u00a0<\/strong>Unranked<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick Breakdown:\u00a0<\/strong>Making the transition from power forward to small forward. \u00a0Working on tightening up his jump shot and ball-handling ability. \u00a0Old for his class, but doesn\u2019t lack maturity because he\u2019s married and has a child.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Analysis: \u00a0<\/strong>From both inside and outside,\u00a0Osby shot extremely well in his senior year at Oklahoma averaging 16 points and seven rebounds a game.\u00a0 He is not on anyone&#8217;s board, but he is a muscular athlete with a long wingspan.\u00a0 While he hit most of his perimeter shots in the footage we watched, he is not a natural shooter from the perimeter, using mostly his upper body instead of his legs.\u00a0 Players like Osby can be found just about anywhere.\u00a0 If he stood out in his workout, it wasn&#8217;t while the tape was rolling.<\/p>\n<h3>WATCH: Shabazz Muhammad answers questions with Sacramento media<\/h3>\n[youtube id=&#8221;dFM9kZutHUU&#8221; width=&#8221;600&#8243;
