Yeah, you can also look at my stickied NBA Draft players on the top of this forum for more about Adam Morrison.
He's an extremely talented, effortless offensive player. Think Mike Miller in the moves he makes; shooting off curls, screens, off the dribble, very pure mid-range shot with an improving three point shot (although that still needs work). He shoots from everywhere and has the savviness/basketball IQ to get to the basket as well. He's horribly on the other end of the court, lacks footspeed, athleticism, just a very slow player. However, he's been torching it in college right now and he can even overtake Rudy Gay as #1 pick if he keeps this up. Not a huge fan of him, but his offensive game is raising the eyes of scouts.
As for other Gonzaga players, JP Batista is a heavy scoring PF for the Zags, but that's about it. Probably a late 2nd rounder at best. Derek Raivio is a thin rail PG, probably like Steve Blake, with good shooting and passing skills, but lacks athleticism and eye-dropping ability. 2nd round pick next year's draft.
