After a rocky start to his collegiate career at Duke, Cam Reddish was drafted by the Atlanta Hawks at #10 overall after being the #2 overall high school recruit, behind only R.J. Barrett and ahead of Zion Williamson.
Of course, Zion quickly overshadowed his higher-pedigree teammates, but Reddish showed enough through his freshman campaign to be deserving of a lottery pick.
Despite that nascent talent, there were many doubters of Reddish in the buildup to the 2019 NBA Draft, as draft gurus questioned his athleticism, decision-making and turnover issues – all of which were prevalent during his freshman campaign with the Blue Devils.
