Seth Davis has a new article out today, he offers some NBA scouts thoughts on some of the draft picks.

Particularly of note are these;
Jae Crowder, 6-6 guard, Marquette: "Size is an issue because he measured small in Chicago, but he just does enough things well. High motor, high energy, rebounds. For a mid-second-round guy, he's not bad. I don't know quite what his NBA skill is other than he plays hard."
Darius Johnson-Odom, 6-3 guard, Marquette: "He's a killer. I like him. He's going to will himself into our league. He can score, he can guard, and he'll make your practices better."
I thought Jae's height was corrected from the Combine.

These are quotes from NBA scouts. So "our league" in the NBA.
I can't wait to be wrong with my prediction that DJO doesn't get drafted.

I've told you guys all year he has a better chance of being drafted than Crowder. I suspect they'll both get picked, but I wouldn't be shocked if Jae is on the outside looking in.

Thanks.
I didn't realize playing hard was an NBA skill...

He measured 6'3" in shoes at the combine. A nice little surprise.
