Under The Radar: Washington State’s Klay Thompson

Vince Grippi of The Spokesman-Review had a nice article on Washington State guard Klay Thompson’s 37 point effort on Thursday night.

Thompson is off to a hot start this season averaging 27 points a game on 55% shooting through Washington State’s first three games. The 6’6” sophomore’s hot start earned him the Pac-10′s player of the week award.

He has already attempted 28 free throws over the first 3 games. He only attempted 31 free throws in the 33 games that he played in last season. This has been the key to his improvement thus far.

Thompson is someone who we will continue to follow closely. As of right now, I consider him a 2nd round pick. If he can keep up his good play, he will continue to rise up the board and into the 1st round.
