| Travis Bader put up incredible numbers during his four year career at Oakland University! |
Travis Bader may, or may not be on the radar of NBA (National Basketball Association) scouts, but I'm here to tell you that Travis Bader's game transfers well at the next level. Travis Bader just finished up a four year career at Oakland University, and put up incredible record breaking numbers. Bader averaged more then 20 points per game during both his junior, and season seasons. In 2012-2013 Bader lead all of Division 1 in 3 point field goals made. This season, Bader lead the Nation in free throw percentage (94%), cashing in on 164 of 174 attempts. Bader also holds the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) Division 1 record for career three pointers made with 504. Bader accumulated over 2000 career points, over 100 career steals, and over 500 three point field goals made, in 137 college games. Just by looking at the numbers alone, Bader seems like a sure fit for the NBA, and should find himself on an NBA roster next season.
With the constant erosion of fundamentals displayed in college, and professional basketball, it's refreshing to see a guy who can shoot, and score from anywhere in the gym, can get to the free throw line on a consistent basis, and can actually cash in on his free throw attempts. Travis Bader's 6'5 frame also allows him the ability to grab rebounds, and his 38 minutes per game average during his junior, and senior seasons proves that he's a durable player. Every team, in every level of basketball needs a guy who can fill it up consistently. The NBA is no different, and Travis Bader could literally come to any team in the league, and provide an immediate impact.

I think that Travis Bader will eventually play in the NBA even if he has to spend some time down in the D-League first.
ReplyDeleteI think that Bader will be drafted into the NBA. The upcoming NBA Draft is going to be top heavy, meaning that the Lottery picks will be strong, but the rest of the draft is weak. Bader should get drafted near the end of the second round.
