UCF's Isaiah Sykes An All-Around Performer
Few players can impact a game like UCF guard Isaiah Sykes. At 6'5", Sykes can score in bunches, rebound like a power forward or run the offense like a point guard, making him a unique and oft- overlooked NBA prospect for the 2013 or 2014 NBA Draft.
Sykes is the only player in the entire country to post more than one triple-double this season: scoring 20 points, grabbing 16 rebounds and dishing 11 assists to just 1 turnover in a win over East Carolina in February, while racking up a 16-point, 11-rebound, 10-assist performance over Stetson and falling just 2 assists shy in a win over defensively-stout USF earlier on in the year.
Sykes can fill up the stat-sheet with averages of 15.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 2 steals per game, gaining the much-deserved attention of some scouts as a second-round prospect should the junior choose to leave school a year early.
