Jaylin Sellers is a left-handed shooting guard who can create his own shot, knock down deep jumpers, and finish above the rim. Sellers averaged 18.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.6 assists this season at Providence. His 18.3 points per game led the Big East. At 6'3" with a 6'7.75" wingspan and 201 pounds, Sellers has good strength. He played two seasons at Ball State, then two at UCF before finishing his NCAA career at Providence. Sellers can really shoot the rock with accuracy. He made 42.9% from three-point range and led the Big East at 85.9% from the free throw line. Sellers is dangerous as a pull-up three-point shooter. He has good speed, jumped a 38" max vertical at the G League Elite Camp, and uses his strength well. He is going to give himself a chance, as we like to say. Sellers was second in the Big East in field goal attempts, and he has the confidence to get his shots up. The reason Sellers is not ranked more highly is the bad case of tunnel vision in his offensive game. He never had a college season with more assists than turnovers. That trait has gotten the best of many scorers. His DDiff was minus 2.1, so the defensive impact was not a selling point either. Sellers will most likely go undrafted. Still, the shot creation, deep shooting, free throw accuracy, strength, and above-the-rim ability are all worth tracking. We think he can become a top-tier reserve shooting guard in the NBA if all goes well.
