More on Marcus Lee

Sam Vecenie, after this weekend's Kentucky Combine, writes:
6. Marcus Lee, 6-foot-9, 7-3 wingspan, Power Forward: Lee is something of an enigma right now, but I'd rather take the devil I know less about than the two devils I know more of (coming next). In the limited minutes he played last season, Lee showed off tremendous athleticism and motor for a player his size, gobbling up offensive rebounds impressively and blocking shots. He also moves well on the perimeter and a plus player in the NBA there. The problem is that he did all of this in a sample size of just 156 minutes last season, which means we need to see him play more before getting a completely accurate depiction of what his ceiling is, especially on the offensive end. Lee had very few plays run for him -- if any -- last season, and got most of his baskets off quick cuts to the rim or rebounds. However, the athleticism and motor show potential for him to be a first-round pick in the coming years.
