Title: Mason Jr.

Boy, the injury bug has to have taken a toll on him as early in his career that kid was a big time scorer. Now, he's kind of just a role player in some ways and is that thrid or fourth option. Just tough luck for that kid

He's always been a complimentary player who was forced into a primary role due to lack of surrounding talent. This year he actually appears to be much more of a complete player but you can tell he's rusty. He's played much better defense and has hit the boards but his shot just isn't there anymore. He sat out an entire year and then some.

Next year College basketball is going to see some more Jrs of NBA Dad's.

As far as I know Shawn Kemp Jr. will be at Auburn next year and Tim Hardaway Jr. was recruited by Michigan. Their Dad's were both solid pros, so it will be interesting to see how these guys do in major D-1 Conferences. Any thoughts?

At some point you could probably field a whole team of Shawn Kemp Jr.'s.

Gary Payton actually has fathered both a Gary Payton Jr. and a Gary Payton II. True story.
