Great article. Also, during a recent game when AR was being discussed, one of the announcers mentioned that he was the NBA's best undrafted player since Ben Wallace. That's very high praise.

i do wish pieces like this would include what has now been widely reported .. that he could have been drafted as high as 42 (IIRC) and his team decided being undrafted was a better option ..

Congrats to Buddy Hield for making 200+ 3-pointers for the 7th consecutive season. He waited until the very end to accomplish it this year, but he hit four of them tonight (needed three) to hit the 200-mark. He's currently 16th in NBA history in 3-pointers made. If he can play another 3-4 seasons, he'll retire in the top 10. I know he's only played 9 years, but he was almost 24 when his NBA career started.

Shooting can also translate well past a players prime.

TY gets tossed last game & should've just been ejected. Looks like he just head butted Davion Mitchell
