Scouting Report: David Edelman [dedelman@acpub.duke.edu]
A classic one-and-a-half guard. He doesn't dribble or distribute well enough to be a 1, and isn't tall enough to be an NBA 2. This guy is Randolph Childress, only less good. Probably not an NBA player, because you don't really want an emotional guy as your 5th guard.


Scouting Report: Robert Anderson [Robert.Anderson10@gte.net]
Shammond showed tremendous improvement over his 4 years at UNC, entering as an unheralded freshman from a prep school to become an extremely underrated All-ACC performer as a Senior.

He has incredible range, and is prone to hot streaks, but I would not consider him streaky. During the few games this year that he was truly off (Maryland, Utah) it was simply a case of the opposition having his number. It did not happen often, but when he had an off game, UNC lost. It really did not matter what Jamison or Carter did. Shammond was his team's MVP. Period.

As for the NBA, I think he would be best used as a 3rd guard for a team with two solid backcourt starters. A "Microwave" type that could play both guard spots, but mainly bring a team offense and outside shooting off the bench in limited minutes. His defense is merely average, but he is a decent enough ballhandler to run the point for short stretches. He did play alot of PG and average as much as 6apg this season before Guthridge decided to play him mainly at SG. Although he is PG sized, that is not the best position for him now, although I know that the team who drafts him will try to groom him as so. He is NOT Randolph Childress, who was chronically injured his whole career at Wake, and simply could not stay healthy long enough to become a contributor in the NBA. Shammond is a hard worker, solid citizen, and should enjoy a long NBA career if he gets drafted by a team that knows how to use him. I see him as being an idea 3rd guard for a team like Portland or San Antonio.
