Quincy Miller is shooting 43 percent on jumpshots, including an impressive 41 percent from beyond the three point arc.
The 6-foot-9, 200 pound small forward has had difficulty finishing at the rim, however, as he connects on less than 50 percent of his total shot attempts inside the three-point line.
Miller has drawn comparison to Kevin Durant for his combination of length and skill and is projected as an early first round pick in this year’s draft.
May 2012 Baylor Bears Wiretap
At least one NBA general manager has not been overly impressed so far by the potential 2012 draft class.
"Everyone talks about how great this draft is," one NBA GM said. "On paper in July, it really looked that way. On the ground in February, I'm not that impressed. Anthony Davis is great. But after that, there are a lot of question marks and a surprising lack of depth. I'm not sure that the 2012 draft will be better than the 2011 one."
North Carolina’s Harrison Barnes, Baylor’s Perry Jones, Ohio State’s Jared Sullinger, and Kentucky’s Terrence Jones have failed to show significant improvement from one season to the next while UConn's Andre Drummond and Duke’s Austin Rivers have failed to live up to the hype that surrounded them.
Only two freshmen, Kentucky’s Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Indiana's Cody Zeller, have exceeded expectations.
