2. Nick Richards – Kentucky/From Jamaica (6-11 240, 20-years-old)
Nick played very limited minutes (15.8 per game) and only averaged 5.7 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1 block per game. Then, why so high? It’s because of his physical tools mainly, including a 7-4 wingspan, 30 inch standing vertical and the ability to hit 3’s (even if only in warm ups). In the five games where he played at least 24 minutes he put up 11.2 points on 73 percent field goal accuracy along with 8.0 rebounds and 1.6 blocks. Ask Fort Wayne what he’s capable of as he posted a 25 point (9-10 field goals), 15 rebound and 2 blocks game against them.
