Brandon Rush - 2008 NBA Draft Profile
Brandon Rush, formerly of the national champion Kansas Jayhawks, is one of the players most ready to produce on the NBA level. Rush has been an NBA prospect for over four years and now he’s ready to finally make the jump to the pros.
Rush isn’t a flashy player but the 6-foot-6 swingman seemingly does everything well. He’s one of the best perimeter defenders in the draft. He can shoot from multiple spots on the court. He’s athletic and is quick on his feet. Rush is also a capable passer a player who should be able to blend right in on the NBA level.
The only downside to Rush is he likely won’t be much more than an average NBA player. His potential is limited and right now he projects to be a solid role player for the team that drafts him. Rush also suffered a torn ACL at this time last year, which could scare a few teams.
Even though there are definite concerns regarding Rush, his stock is rising as the draft nears. He could go anywhere from 13 to 19. Whoever drafts Rush will likely expect him to produce right away, which is a good news for those looking for a fantasy basketball candidate for 2008.
