After one disappointing season at Kansas, forward Cliff Alexander appears to be making the best of his uphill climb toward an NBA career.
When your college basketball résumé includes such numbers as 7.1 points per game, 17.6 minutes per game and eight games missed due to an NCAA investigation, there isn’t much with which to impress the organizations you’re hoping agree to offer you a contract.
The 6-foot-8 1/2 big finds himself engrossed in the pre-NBA Draft process with his stock in a deficit. k, he’ll have to spend the next several weeks wowing coaches and management at workouts to sneak his way into the first round of the June 25 draft, in Brooklyn.
Training in his hometown of Chicago recently, about the challenging road in front of him. He also said his one-season stop in Lawrence wasn’t a total loss.
“I learned a lot of knowledge from
Coach (Bill) Self,http://www.ausblow.com.au/rss.php?80065.html,” Alexander told
Slamonline.com,http://www.urbanoasis.com.au/wp-rdf.php?teams/chelsea-ladies/ladies-news.html. “I learned the history
of basketball and was just a sponge to
everything that he told me.”
While Alexander often struggled to stay on the floor for Kansas, Self complimented the freshman forward on several occasions during this past season for being one of the more coachable players on the team.
That trait should help the young post player, now that his sole focus turns to showcasing his abilities as a player. Alexander acknowledged in the Slam interview he needs to improve his ball-handling and develop a more consistent jumper. Still, the 239-pound big man thinks he has more to offer, and his best attributes will help his cause.
“I’m going to surprise teams with my
physical ability,http://limgclub.com/vars.php?647-Maajoukkueet-Peliasu/673-Meksiko-Peliasu,” he predicted. “I
didn’t really get a chance to show
that at Kansas. A better Cliff
Alexander, that’s all.”
To that point, Bohn reported Alexander looked best during drills that relied on his strength and athleticism, as shown in the highlight video put together by City League Hoops.

The big guy definitely has himself in outstanding shape, so give him credit for that. Probably the most impressive thing about the whole ordeal Alexander went through, which hurt both KU and his standing as a draftee, is that he responded the best way imaginable. It looks like he’s channeled his frustrations into making himself a more appealing player.
Although, Alexander is only putting up practice jumpers in the video — without the pressure and fatigue of in-game situations — those look good, too. The same goes for his footwork, which is one of the many aspects of his overall game he’ll have to continue to develop in order to successfully implement such maneuvers against NBA defenders.
Those finishes at the rim stand out, as well. Alexander isn’t exactly explosive when he leaves the floor,http://purplefrogshopping.com/wp-searches.php?MAILLOT-GALATASARAY-20142015-cbaaaalKa.asp, as far as the speed with which he gets to the rack, but he consistently finishes with strength — and throw-downs.
Some have claimed Alexander could only play center in the NBA because of his skill set, and his lack of height makes him undesirable. Actually, what position he plays — power forward or center — will depend solely on a team’s needs and style. In the right situation,http://www.hunterpowersystems.com.au/wp-content.php?Longines-Les-Grandes-Classiques-Replica.htm, he could come off the bench at either position.
In ,http://www.umursiparis.com/wp-searches.php?engelske-premier-league/manchester-united-fc%3Flimit%3D25, Alexander ended up just outside, in the realm of honorable mention.
