I've just been checking the profile and some videos on this kid, and I'm kind of curious; what makes Shane Larkin more of a sure-fire prospect than Pressey?

I'm thinking Larkin's 47.9 FG%, including 40.6% on threes in 2012-2013, compared with Pressey's 37.6%/32.4% has something to do with it.

Look good on Utube; but...
Consistency. Size. Turnovers.

Pressey scores 85 on nbadraftnet
Not seen as an NBA prospect; but I think he could make it.

Larkin Scores 90
and is constantly being compared with top point guards in the draft.

Draftexpress also said that Pressey was the #1 ranked most turnover prone prospect amongst their top 100 prospect in their database. Loads of turnovers + highly inefficient scoring. Inability to finish inside or shoot off the dribble. Undersized PG with suspect defensive value.

Sounds like a keeper.
