Height: 6’2”
Weight: 194lbs
Accolades: Fourth Team Freshman All-American
(03), ACC All-Freshman Team (03), First Team All-ACC (04), Second Team
All-ACC (05), MVP Preseason NIT (05)
Scouting Report: An explosive scorer who
loves shooting the three. Can also beat his man off the dribble to
score. An undersized 2 guard without a lot of point guard skills
Strengths: Big time scorer. Gray has been a
productive scorer for four years now in the ever-tough ACC. Can knock
down the three with the best of them. Also is quick off the dribble and
likes nailing threes while leading on the fast break.
Weaknesses: Another “tweener” NBA prospect –
too small to be an effective 2 guard - doesn’t possess point guard
skills. He racks up almost as many turnovers as assists at the college
level – can only imagine what those numbers would be like in the pros.
Also doesn’t shoot for a very high percentage.
Projected 2006 Draft Range: late first round –
early second round
Consensus: Gray’s NBA potential will be
limited due to his size. Still, quite a few “combo” guards make it in
the pros. The deciding factor will be if he can improve his point guard
abilities and prove he can defend in the NBA. His scoring ability will
at least give him the chance to see if he can do this.
