Two Major Mock Drafts Have Q-Pon In First Round

Just checked out NBADraft.net and DraftExpress for the first time in a while to see where Quincy was sitting in their mock drafts, and he’s taken quite an uptick since the last time I checked.

If memory serves, earlier in the season, Quincy was listed as a late second rounder at NBADraft.net, and unlisted at DraftExpress. Now?

Quincy’s projected at NBADraft.net as the 30th pick, going to Cleveland with the last pick in the first round. And, DraftExpress has him even higher, going with the 19th pick to the Memphis Grizzlies.

I’m thrilled to see this, and love Gant’s Moustache’s take on Quincy’s pro outlook. Gant projects Pondexter as a guy who could develop into a Bruce Bowen type, but with a better jumpshot and all-around offensive game.

In case you were wondering, the other Huskies listed on the sites’ mock drafts are Abdul Gaddy (projected as the 11th pick in the 2011 Draft by DraftExpress), and verbal commit Enes Kanter, who is projected as the 25th pick in 2011 by NBADraft.net, but may never attend UW in the first place.

Thanks for coming!
