Shan’s the Man

By Joe Boikess | June 26th, 2008

Shan Foster (pronounced “Shane”), the 6′6″ shooting guard out of Vanderbilt, became the 51st pick in the 2008 NBA Draft and newest potential member of the Dallas Mavericks. Foster’s greatest strength is his shooting, as he was one of the best three point shooters in the country last year. He’s also got nice length, speed and athleticism, and he can play some defense. He does have a few knocks, including an unorthodox shooting stroke and sub-par ball handling skills, but in the end I think he was a good pick. Scouts had him valued as a late-first to early-second rounder.

More from me on this pick and some other Mavericks happenings over the weekend.
