This kid is a diamond in the rough.....he averaged about 16.4 pts, 4.8 rbs., 2.2 ast. 2 stls. for Temple in his career. Last year his numbers were 24 pts., 5 rbs, 2.7 ast., and 2.6 stls.. He also shot .407 from the field....he's a big kid, can post up...

Strengths: Power guard who can take it strong to the basket and finish at the rim. More of a two, but solid passing and ballhandling skills allow him to slide over to the point on occasion.
Hawkins

He's also Married with 2 kids so he will have no problems with staying out.....the kid is a mature kid, and he comes from a John Chaney coached program....Temple produced some really good guards....Eddie Jones, Aaron McKie...2 strong NBAers who are solid on and off the court. They have amazing character, too....

we have 5 guards (marbury, h20, frank, moochie, penny) and possibly a 6th coming in with crawford. there's no way he makes the team unless we unload 2 or 3 of ours.

I agree....I think Shandon should be bought out, and I also think that If we have to give up the farm and all the damn cows to get Crawford, it isn't worth it....He is only going to be a 3rd guard for the time being, a role that Frank Williams is playing very well...I wouldn't mind not getting Craw and taking a chance on this Kid if it's gonna cost us all of our tradeable assets to get Crawford...

not to disagree w/his talent, but he did have to put up alot of shots to avg 24pts last year. but on the other hand, he can score and is an above avg defender w/almost 3stls per last year.
needless to say he WAS on my radar on draft day.
