Bradshaw

That's part of the problem with these rankings. Some of it is how good a player was in HS, but a lot of it is projecting them forward how they wiil look a year or two or three after college. That's why sometimes you'll see a player like Reed Sheppard come in and people will be like, who knew he could play like that. He's a really good basketball player now, but what he does might not seemed to have projected well to the NBA.

Just watch other freshmen around the country when you can. They are actually better players than the 5 stars ranked ahead of them, but they might not be prototypical looking players so they are ranked lower despite being better at the actual game currently.

Good points ... makes good sense. Thanks for the reply.

As this is the most recent thread on Bradshaw and the frustration with injuries..

It's worth pointing out that Tyrese Proctor had a pretty significant leg injury in the Duke game on Saturday.. and here we are Tuesday night with absolutely no news or word from Scheyer on what exactly he injured. There's no way they don't know what the injury likely is, even in the odd chance he hasn't gotten an MRI or Xray yet.

Just saying, the info on injuries, and how coaches can be purposefully obtuse on the matter, isn't specific to Cal.

I loved his fight for the ball on that one play and the slam home. He was so pumped after that. Yes, he looked very raw but he needs more practice and play time and hopefully we see his best version soon.

I agree man he will catch up and hopefully faster than the flash

He’s practiced like a week and played like 8 minutes. Let’s let the dude get conditioned and play a little before we determine that he sucks. I get that the loss sucks but damn.

Where’s the “he will never play” crowd?

I thought he looked lost when he was in game today. Looked as he had not practiced at all with these players. I thought someone said he had been practicing ?

Seriously? Well considering the injury, surgery, boot, reconditioning, limited practice, completely strange team, first appearance and endless ridicule and comparisons to Sharpe….He did pretty good
