Kris Dunn
Posted: Tue Mar 24, 2015 8:33 amSaw this from ESPN- talking about how players have impacted their NBA draft stock 1st weekend of the tourney:
Kris Dunn, PG, So., Providence
The downside of Dunn was on full display against Dayton on Friday. He had seven turnovers and shot just 4-for-13 from the field in a bad loss to Dayton. Dunn's stock had been rising the past month, to the point that some scouts were looking at him in the late lottery. I doubt this performance will damage that momentum much. Everyone who has scouted him knows he can play out of control and can try to do too much. In many other Big East games, scouts were treated to his terrific scoring ability, elite court vision, elite athleticism and length for his position. One game won't kill his stock. He'll likely go somewhere in the No. 13 to 20 range if he declares.
I think 2 things from this-
1- If he's truly in that 13-20 range, he's as good as gone.
2- Kind of bad that Dunn was the only guy in the entire story from the Big East(had about 36 players).
