It is widely expected that point guards will be the first two players taken in next month’s NBA draft.
Monte Morris, the former Iowa State guard by way of Grand Rapids, Mich., is not one of those two. Still, when asked by a reporter in March whether he believed himself to be the best college point guard in the country, Morris gave an unequivocal response.
“Definitely,” he said.
It’s an opinion Morris doubled down on Monday after participating in a pre-draft workout for the Kings at the Golden 1 Center.
“I mean, I put in the work,” Morris said.
