Point-guard plethora

Posted Jun 21, 2005

North Carolina's Raymond Felton is quick with the ball and stronger than his 6-foot-1 frame might show. Illinois' Deron Williams has strength and inches to spare at 6-3, 210 pounds. Wake Forest's Chris Paul has bulked up his 6-foot frame in recent months and has finesse with the ball. It's up to Charlotte coach and general manager Bernie Bickerstaff to decide which of those skills will best fit the Bobcats when they make the fifth pick overall at the NBA Draft.
