NBA veterans astonished by outlook of prep players
Posted Jun 23, 2010
Jerry Stackhouse said he asked one player whether his alma mater, UNC, was on the player's recruiting radar. The player quickly dismissed the Tar Heels, saying their last one-and-done was Marvin Williams, the No. 2 overall pick in 2005 who never averaged more than 15 points in the league. "He wants to go somewhere where it's one-and-done -- and he has maybe a total of 10 points in three games that we've played," Stackhouse said. "Go figure, man."
