Jahmi’us Ramsey, Texas Tech
*Stats provided as of 3/7/20
Texas Tech freshman Jahmi’us Ramsey has shown rapid improvement since high school. He’s been better than expected in college and looks like a legit NBA prospect. His pure shooting stroke and toughness on defense will draw a lot of attention.
The Red Raiders will be in the tournament, and Ramsey will have the chance to show out. He’s averaging 15.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists while hitting 42 percent of his three-pointers. His shot is effortless, he’s efficient and he has a strong work ethic.
The 18 year old may be a tad undersized for a two-guard at 6’4″, but he does have a strong frame and a large wingspan. The shooting is nice, the defense is nice, but what I love is his energy. He’s always playing hard and brings it every single night. He’s a flat out dog on the court.
Ramsey is still very young and I’m not sure that he will contribute to an NBA team right away, but I still view him as a late first round pick. He does so many things well and still has so much room to grow.
The Utah Jazz could be a good landing spot for a guy like Ramsey. His shooting, defense and toughness will attract scouts during the pre-draft process, if he decides to test the process.
