Summary:
Trevon Bluiett is a 6-6 swingman that can shoot and score the basketball. His jump shot and ability to score the basketball brings plenty of intrigue to NBA teams and scouts, as he went on to have a terrific NCAA Tournament. But he also has a knack for making the right plays when he is on the floor, as his play was heavily instrumental to his team’s success last season.
Currently, Bluiett is highly skilled basketball player that has very good court sense, and he could be a good value pick for a team in the second round range of the upcoming draft.
