Desmond Cambridge Jr.

Updated on 6/28/23.  Written by Alan Lu.
2023 rankings were finalized on 6/22/23.

Height: 6-4
Weight: 180
College: Arizona State
Classification: Sixth-Year Senior
Birthdate: 12/30/1998

Projected Draft Range: Likely Undrafted

Pros:

Adequate shooter
Excels at scoring on off-ball motion plays
Handles the ball well
Decent defender that can get steals
Solid athlete

Cons:

Streaky shooter
Prone to hoisting up questionable shots
Can be too scoring focused on offense
Not a true point guard, but is undersized to play the two
Old for a draft prospect, may have limited upside

Summary:

Desmond Cambridge Jr. is an agile, skilled combo guard that recently played at Arizona State this past season. He was invited to play at the 2023 Portsmouth Invitational. He is a shot maker that can score in bunches, but he’ll need to improve his shot selection and show that he can reliably run the point at higher levels. Currently, he may project to be a borderline second round candidate for the 2023 draft.
