Not hearing a lot of people talk about this guy, which is a bit strange considering he went to Syracuse and Knicks fans tend to have a Big East bias. But he's a very good outside shooter and stood out in the Orlando pre-draft camp for his scoring. He can shoot of curls, spot up, has a decent fadeway. The knock on him is he doesn't do a lot to create his own shot and isn't the most athletic guy. But then again if Jason Kapono and Kyle Korver can find an important NBA role than I think this guy can too.

Isiah's typically used his late firsts on guys who stood out in the postseason and Nichols fits that profile.

6. Demetris Nichols 6-7 205 SF Syracuse Sr. -- 13.7 ppg, 15-23 fg (65.2%), 9-13 3p (69.2%). Nichols was money in the bank all week shooting an incredible 69% from three over the three games hitting 9-13. He lacks stand out athleticism, but he's good enough where it's not a liability, and his outside shot and overall decision making will make him a solid role player in the NBA. Look for him to be one of the first 10 or so second rounders taken.

I like Nichols shooting ability, the kid from Boston has a bad studdering problem.

NY media would destroy him in interviews

Thankfully shooting will be a bigger part of his game than talking.

Well maybe at some point we can have a team of 5 SF on the floor.
