Kay Felder

This little guy was an absolute monster at Oakland this past season! Felder, who stands only 5 foot-9 inches, will need to prove many critics wrong in the NBA, but his passion, tenacity, and will to be better and to make those around him better will not go unnoticed.

Felder averaged 24.2 points per game last season, which was his junior season with Oakland. Felder shot 84.8% from the line, 35.5% from the three, and 44% from the field. He was also named Horizon Player of the Year.

This article on how Felder could excel in the NBA is the exact reason that teams should not sleep on this point guard.

Over a player at Felder’s size could be a potential bust, but since the Denver Nuggets have two late-second round picks, why would they not use one on this powerful, potent point guard.

Watch for Denver to potentially snag him off the board with the 53rd pick in the draft if he is still on the table!
