Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Fliff In California

<p>Following the conclusion of the college basketball season, few players see their stock rise, like Villanova&#8217;s Cam Whitmore. The one-and-done is now a part of discussions to go top five due to an impressive showing at the NBA Combine.</p>
<p>With the draft just weeks away, we dissect his game and get you up to speed on his scouting report.</p>
<h2>Career with Villanova</h2>
<p>Whitmore became a question mark for Villanova fans early after missing the first month of the season following thumb surgery. The true freshman debuted on December 3 and didn&#8217;t take long to get going, scoring 21 points in his second game against Penn. He soon became a regular starter for the team, wowing the Philly faithful with his scoring prowess and muscular build at 18 years old. A slow start to the season with some ugly non-conference losses kept Whitmore from displaying his talents on the sport&#8217;s biggest stage at the NCAA Tournament.</p>
<h2>Strengths</h2>
<p>Whitmore&#8217;s most significant strength is his commitment to whichever move he utilizes. He possesses a devastating jab step and pump-fakes, which defenders often bite on as he leaves them in the dust. His size and speed come into play once he enters the lane; few can stop him from finding the rim. His size and athleticism are the main reasons he is becoming such a highly-rated prospect.</p>
<h2>Weaknesses</h2>
<p>Whitmore has been accused of having tunnel vision. He averaged less than an assist in over 27 minutes per game and didn&#8217;t do much to get his teammates involved. If he wants to elevate his game further and be named among the top three prospects in this year&#8217;s class, he must show he can play within the flow of any offense. Among 26 appearances, he had just one game where he notched more than two assists.</p>
<h2>Overall NBA Projection</h2>
<p>If Whitmore wants to succeed at the next level with such little playmaking ability, he must become an elite scorer. With ball movement becoming a priority in the NBA, a player who slows things down or hunts for his own shot every time can deflate an offense. His sheer athleticism and crisp jumper make the Maryland native a lottery-level talent and worth a top-five pick in this year&#8217;s class.</p>
<p><strong>Projected Pick:</strong> Top Five</p>
<p><strong>Player Comparison:</strong> Carmelo Anthony</p>
