An NBA scout evaluates the potential of Arkansas junior Ronnie Brewer, a 6'7", 217-pound guard who was averaging 18.8 points (tops in the SEC) and 4.6 rebounds at week's end. -- Julia Morrill

"He has the ugliest shot I've ever seen. He makes three-pointers, but I have no idea how they go in. You never know where the ball will go when he misses; sometimes it even hits the shot clock. But I can live with all of that, because you know what? He scores.... Still, he's not an off-the-chart athlete, he doesn't defend and he doesn't rebound. That bothers me because when you're 6'7" and as long as he is, you should be a pain in the ass.... People say he can be a point guard, but I don't think he's a great passer.... He's a first-rounder for sure, but people are saying he'll go as the fifth, sixth or seventh pick. I'd be scared to death to take him that high."
