Reddish's win in the best career category may be the most surprising given Williamson's prestige. He averaged 13.5 points on 35.6 percent shooting last year and was considered a top-three pick for much of the pre-draft season before falling to No. 8.

 

They said he fell to 8, it was 10. Comon BR get it together baby! Damn.

I’m not shocked Cam is in the top 3 for best career in this class ...I’m shocked that he beat out Zion for number 1 and that Hunter was even considered to be a top 3 player in this category among the other fellow rookies.

 

to me that’s very telling! Even if it is from rookies....think about it! The other fellow rookies chose a player who stop getting as much media attention and had a down year in college YET they voted him (Cam) best overall career?!!!....wow 

 

seriously I’m lost for words Zion didn’t get number 1 for best overall career from the other rookies.

@NBASupes is gonna loooove this

Cam's peers always shout him out. Part of it feels like them feeling bad for the way he struggled at Duke. But obviously they know how talented he is as well.

Not even just because he struggled, these cats really respect his game. Here is a video of top HS recruits being asked who was the hardest player they had to guard and they go bananas when talking about Cam. 

Anthony Edwards, the #1 player in the nation called Cam Reddish "different".

These guys know each other from years in the HS circuit and they all know 1st hand how good Cam is, not was. I also think Hunter landing at #3 is a credit to the Hawks in general. These young guys seem to know that we have some great young ballers on the team and its only a matter of time before we make it back to the playoffs and contend for a title.

These things are popularity contests more than anything. But at least it shows Cam is well liked. The truth is players are horrible scouts, especially young players.

Yeah, I was a little excited about this at first. 

And then they went into the past results from these rookie surveys, and I was all like

Most players usually just go by experience. Most seen and know what Cam Reddish is. He was the most misused prospect in the last ten years and now he is going into the best situation for a prospect since Magic joined Kareem.

I would love to see our two top ten guys have HoF careers and be the superstars we need to go with Young and JC.

[NBASupes]

Cam Reddish is the first player we ever drafted I feel could be the best player in the NBA one day. Trae was the biggest offensive talent we ever drafted. 

[Spud2nique]

We are definitely in uncharted territory as far as guys we are drafting. Collins/Trae/Huerter/Cam and Hunter sound much better than

Childress/Smoove/Shelden/Marvin/Salim.

Just saying we are about to get a few more fans after this season.

Oh God, I nearly spit out my water looking at that comparison. With the exception of Osh, none of the other guys remotely merited the positions they were drafted in...

Hopefully this in part reflects a view that our rookies are entering a great environment for them to succeed and demonstrates a positive view towards the Hawks among young players.  We'll be going after some of them in FA in the future and it would be nice if they viewed us as a desirable place to play and grow.
