It's painfully clear Vander Blue is an utter zero offensively.  He can't shoot a jump shot to save his soul and can't finish around the basket (and cut out that weak sauce finger roll that never goes in).  I also think he's really overrated on defense, too.  He's quick enough to get in some passing lanes, but isn't really a very good on-ball defender.

But my question is how did he look in high school?  Could he shoot a jump shot?  At all?  Even a little bit?  Did he just get by on sheer athleticism?

He was a consensus top 50 guy, but his offense isn't worthy of being top 500.

One of the best combo guys in the class of 2010. Strong body, can get a bucket as needed. High-major, elite prospect.

GGGG

Took guys off the dribble all of the time.  Streaky shooter from the outside.  He is adjusting to the speed.
