Tony Wroten Jr. is one of the 2012 NBA Draft's biggest enigmas. He has lottery type talent and size, but will he ever fufill his upside?
Tony Wroten Jr. 6-4 Freshman Washington PG/SG 19 years old
2011-12 stats: 30 mpg, 16 ppg, 5 rpg, 3.7 apg, 3.8 tpg, 2 spg
Projection: Anywhere from mid first round to early second round
Strengths: Tony Wroten Jr. is a playmaking, combo guard with elite size, length, and athleticism. He uses his strength to bully his way to the paint, draw contact and finish at the rim. He is also a skilled passer, with the ability to make the flashy, highlight plays as well. He uses his length to his advantage defensively and really could be an elite defender at the next level if he puts his mind to it.’
Weaknesses: Wroten is very talented, but played out of control and selfishly a lot during his freshman season at Washington. His jump shot is flat out horrible, needs plenty of work. He turns the ball over too often, and takes bad shots instead of running the offense. The physical talent is there, but there is also a huge bust factor as well. Teams might be scared and he could drop into the early 2nd round.
