Sammy Mejia NBADraft.net - Sammy Mejia BRONX’S MEJIA HAS A PRAYER | By DAN MARTIN | New York Knicks DraftExpress Profile: Sammy Mejia Mejia (MEJ-IA) is a big point guard, a 4 year senior, a capable passer and scorer, and a "character guy" with a strong religious upbringing.
Is this Joe's way of showing Rip and hopefully CB that they can be replaced? No more complacency, huh?
This guy is actually rated pretty high by some scouts. He can drive, he has size for the SG, and he creates match up problems.
From Hoopsworld June 20, HoopsWorld: From Bob Cousy to Stephon Marbury, New York City has been a haven of NBA guards. Bronx native Sammy Mejia is the latest product of the Big Apple, and the DePaul standout guard is ready to take his game to the pros. At 6'6" Mejia is big for his position and he uses his size to cause match up problems and gain the advantage on defense. Mejia's ball handling skills allow him to get past defenders and drive to the hoop where he can pull up and knock down the jumper. He raised eye brows, and his draft stock, in Orlando and Mejia will be a second round option for a team in need of a solid guard to come off the bench.
Well looking on the bright side, Mejia played pretty decent against the big Schools, averaging 14.1ppg playing against the likes of Kentucky, Kansas, Wake Forest, California, Villanova, UConn, Syracuse, Notre Dame, Louisville, Marquette etc.
