De Shaun Thomas’ Defense has been improving in the last few weeks of the season, it is almost average now. It used to be horrible. De Shaun Thomas does stay out of foul trouble and plays many minutes without rest. He is still a very poor ball handler for a SF and does not have a PF body. He has been a great scorer in the tournament. Decision making with the ball is improving, and has become a more willing passer. Could be a good second until player for the right team. I believe he has a good work ethic and his game is continuing to improve. He should stay in school another year, since he can’t be found on mock draft boards. Buckeye fans seem to have a late first, early second round grade on him, but this draft is particularlly deep, and DeShaun may not get drafted.
