Classification: Senior
Birthdate: 9/5/1994
Projected Draft Range: 2nd Round to Undrafted

Excels at attacking the basket

Good free throw shooter
Adequate playmaker
Solid athlete
Cons:
Just now may be a good shooter
Needs to improve his rebounding
Does not collect enough steals or blocks

Summary:
Michael Young is an athletic 6-9 forward that had a solid senior season for Pittsburgh this year, as he averaged roughly 20 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists per game for them. But up until now, he had not generated much draft buzz. Right now, he may be a borderline second round candidate to be picked in 2017.
