2012 NBA Draft Scouting Report: Maalik Wayns
Position: Point Guard
Size: 6-1, 185
School: Villanova, Junior
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Summary: Wayns is making a mistake by leaving school early, as there is a realistic chance he’ll go undrafted. He is a volume scorer who doesn’t shoot the ball well from distance and never proved to be a true floor leader during his three years at Villanova. Plus, he lacks the ideal athleticism compared to the ideal NBA-level point guard.
Player Comparison: John Lucas. An undersized point guard who is more of a scorer than distributor, Lucas has struggled to find a role in the NBA and has floated around the D-League and overseas. Wayns figures to experience a similar situation as he will have to work his way onto a NBA roster, which won’t be easy.
