2012 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Kim English


Position: Shooting Guard

Size: 6-6, 200

School: Missouri, Senior


Strengths:
  • Three-point shooting
  • Catch and shooter
  • Moves well off screens
  • Pull-up jumper
  • Mid-range game
  • Can attack off the bounce
  • Active defender
  • Unselfish
  • Doesn't force shots
  • Basketball IQ
  • Can play multiple positions



    Weaknesses:
  • Lacks ideal NBA athleticism
  • Needs to get stronger
  • Attacking the basket
  • Creating his own shot

    Summary: Despite playing out of position most of his senior year (he started at the four for Mizzou), English had a bit of a breakthrough season. His ability to play numerous positions and knock down open shots, and his high level of activity on the defensive end could land him a spot as a role player in the NBA. He doesn't have outstanding athletic ability though, which makes him a second-round prospect.

    Player Comparison: Daniel Green. Much like Green at North Carolina, English was a solid role player at Missouri who accepted whatever role was thrown at him. Green has used that versatility and his ability to shoot the ball from deep to become an important role player for the Spurs. English has the potential to follow a similar career path in the NBA.
