Is there a sure fire NBA starter at PG...

[SkyPrince1]

in college this season?

DeAngelo Russell, Jerian Grant and Deion Wright are all possibilities but all three have the "combo" label so it's still to be determined how they will be used at the next level.

Rozier
Pangos
Taylor
Paige

Can't label any of these guys as sure fire starters.

This 2014-15 group may be the weakest collection of PG talent in the history of the NCAA.

Still plenty of time for Andrew to make a push. It's not like the deck is stacked against him.

Folks complain mercilessly about Andrew but that '13 PG class as whole is bad. Kasey Hill was our next option, nuff said.

i think russell for sure is but it will take a while . Wright maybe as well. Rozier is a SG and Pangos will never step foot in the NBA.

Add Tyus Jones in the mix.

Its a weak guard group. Part of the reason why Booker is flying up the draft boards, because it dominated by bigs and not many shooters.

Andrew still has a chance to get drafted. He's put himself in such a big hole, its not looking likely.

Personally, I think Andrew's game is more suited for the NBA than college. All man to man defense and he'll be better able to use his size and strength.

Of coarse it is . anyone who thinks Andrew won't get drafted ( he might go 45th though) is outta their mind . IMO he will play for 10 years in the league but i doubt he is more then a long time journey man but he will still make millions in his career . Aaron i do think is a NBA starter and will play just as long is not longer but i believe Andrew goes first in the draft ( most mocks still have him going 1st ) as 6'6 pgs are way more valuable then 6'6 SGs.

The homer is strong in this.

Theres almost no mock available that have Andrew in the first. DX surprisingly has him #45. Draftnet has him in the 2nd as wel.. CBSSports ranked him #90.

I personally don't think he'll get drafted. 6'6 PGs are irrelevant when you don't have skills to actually play the position.

Andrew is certainly going to have to shoot better to make it in the NBA. He does not have to be a scorer playing the PG position, but someone said he is shooting 20% since the UL Game? I am not sure if that is factual, but if so...needs to improve that.

IMO Andrew is not nba material at this point. He is like bogans his sophomore year maybe he can have a good jr season and shoot up the boards but he is 5 mistakes for every good thing he does. That has to turn around in college or go to Europe and roll the dice.

PG is by far the deepest position in the NBA. D'Angelo Russell looks like he could be a stud at the next level not sure if it will be PG or SG though.

As for Andrew Harrison game being more suited for the NBA, I don't see it at all. Don't think he ever will be a starting PG in the NBA unless he makes a huge improvement.

I don't see these guys as "combos" at all, as there's nothing really point-ish about their games (Hell, Grant essentially plays the 4 spot in that four guard starting lineup of NDs). I think those guys are pure twos at the next level.

However, to address your question, I think the best bet in this draft to succeed as a future starting NBA point ain't playing college basketball--Emannuel Mudiay.

Russell is definitely impressive. He may be on his way to a triple double today playing against Ohio State.
