Seabron, Dereon NC State 6'6" 182 LPS soph. 

Seabron is a right-handed scorer that shoots a low percentage from beyond the arc. He averaged 17.3 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.4 steals per game in 2021-22. He shot just 25.6% from three-point range. He made 71.3% of his free throws. He really improved as a decision maker this season going from a guy with way more turnovers than assists to a player with a 1.3-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio. Seabron was awarded the ACC Most Improved Player trophy. He has good speed and excellent overall athleticism (jumped a 38" max. vert. at the NBA Draft Combine). He is in outstanding physical condition (only 4% body fat, as measured at the Combine). He is a really helpful rebounder for a wing. Defensively, Seabron is solid. His DEFRTG was just slightly (.2 points) behind the NC State team DEFRTG. We expect Seabron to be a late second round pick. We enjoyed watching him get to the basket. He is good at applying offensive pressure. Always in attack mode. However, in today's NBA, a team can have one non-shooter on the floor among their five. That one non-shooter better be extra special and we just don't think Seabron is. He could prove everyone wrong by becoming a passable three-point shooter. 

 

Our best advice: in 2014, the 49th pick was Cameron Bairstow. We advised, "draft Thanasis Antetokounmpo."
