2011 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Renardo Sidney
Position: Power Forward
Size: 6-10, 270
School: Mississippi State, Sophomore
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: As if there were not enough red flags surrounding Sidney, the latest fight with teammate Elgin Bailey in the stands during the Diamond Head Classic kills his NBA Draft stock. No team will give him the guaranteed money of a first-round pick so he will have to hope that someone takes a second-round flier on him despite all these character issues. More than likely, Sidney has D-League written all over him if does declare for the draft this summer which seems very likely due to his status at Mississippi State being up in the air.
Player Comparison: Zach Randolph. From their early maturity issues, to their big bodies, to their ability to step out and knock down mid-range jumpers; this comparison seems pretty spot on. If Sidney can ever it figure it out like Randolph eventually did, the skill set is there for him to be a talented NBA player. That is a big “if” though.
