Sebastian Telfair Mix of his best plays from high school at Lincoln to the NBA with the Blazers. Come inside the last edition of Just a Minute with Rivals.com National Basketball Recruiting Analyst Justin Young and find out. Several schools received some very surprising news, both good and bad, and the summer was filled with big-time performances from big time players like Julian Wright. Thirteen players announced they'd bypass college for the NBA draft. What exactly the Trailblazers expected a nineteen-year-old to do with that particular group besides finish 27-55 defies me. A second finger could easily point in the direction of the Portland Trailblazers organization for drafting a run-and-gun point guard to operate a slow-down offense anchored by underathletic power-forwards , aging, chronically injured guards , and a hands-of-stone center. Telfair was not the first would-be-prodigy to be caught with a gun , but he wasnt averaging twenty-five points per game and the corner stone of a franchise either. He certainly didnt help his cause by being caught in possession of a firearm only to put the wrap on his girlfriend or by speeding on a suspended license with a gun under the seat a year later.

Still, though, its hard to believe that just three years ago Telfair was gracing the cover of Sports Illustrated, chilling with the likes of Jay-Z, and on the verge of becoming a lottery pick; harder still to believe that scouts and other NBA observers firmly believed he had a bigger upside than that years Naismith Player of the Year winner, Jameer Nelson, or that Adidas found him a worthy enough prospect to sign him to a twelve million dollar deal. Now, to be fair, hes probably got a better chance of seeing serious NBA action again than Shaun Livingston, the other point guard taking in the 04 Draft straight out of high school.
