This is similar to the Tate to the NBA thread. Do you guys think Slam Thompson has a chance to get to the NBA? We all know his athleticism is off the charts. He has also become a solid defender. Of course he still needs to develop his outside shot, and ball handling, as well as his ability to create his own shot and attack the basket aggressively. I could see him maybe starting out in the D-league or oversees as he continues to develop his all around game.
What do you guys think? How well does his game translate to the NBA? Is his athleticism good enough that a team could take a chance on him?
