Tennessee’s long, smooth-scoring wing with NBA-level shot creation
In the 2010-11 season, Scotty Hopson averaged 17.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.3 assists for Tennessee while shooting 45.2% from the field and 37.6% from three[2][7]. At 6-foot-7, he brings a scorer’s frame, perimeter touch, and the ability to create offense off the bounce, which made him one of the SEC’s tougher matchup problems[2][6][12]. The knock is that his game was more scoring-centric than all-around controlling, so he fits best with a team that can let him attack rather than ask him to be a pure table-setter[2][7].
