Besson, Hugo  France  6'6" 180 LPS 4/26/01

Besson is a favorite among scouts because he plays a fearless brand of basketball. He averaged 13.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.2 assists. He shot 30.8% 3-pt. FG, 79.5% FT. His assist-to-turnover ratio is 1.26-to-1. …His DEFRTG is 1.4 points worse than his team's DEFRTG. ...Besson is a rare prospect that has a wingspan shorter than his height with shoes. He jumped 31.5" max. vert. at the NBA Draft Combine. ...Besson will probably be taken late in round two. ...He has trouble creating his own offense. We love his grit but we think he is someone we would let be taken elsewhere. 

 

Our best advice: in 2007, the 1st pick was Greg Oden. We advised, "draft Kevin Durant."
