Now, Stromile Swift is applying for the NBA Draft. He is expected not to sign with an agent so he could go back to school if he sees that his stock is not high before the draft. However, it would be very unlikely for Swift to go back to school. Given his potential, Swift looks like he could go at least in the top five. says his staying for another year in college. That news is good news for NBA and bad news for the NCAA.
Swift was one of the reasons why the LSU Tiger's program rose from nowhere. He led the team to the NCAA Top 25 Rankings and back to the sweet sixteen.
Stromile Swift has a big upside that all scouts love. He is an athletic power forward who also has moves at the low block. He also has quickenss which he uses to his advantage He is an outstanding rebounder and a great defensive presence.
Swift has potential written over his name. He showed that he can play against talent. Against Texas and Chris Mihm, Swift convincingly outplayed and beat Mihm. With another year in college, not only will he help LSU but also help improve his game and raise his stock for next year.
Swift needs to expand his shooting range more. He also needs to become more agressive at both ends of the floor. He also needs to become a better passer. However, these weakness in his game is something that can be taught. Talent is something that Swift has that can't be taught, something another players can't say.
Expect Swift not to take his name out of the draft. Lots of teams like to take him. Some even rate him higher than Martin and Fizer. His application to the draft has made the power forward spot unanimously the richest position in the draft. Swift will be a high lottery pick.
