From lottery pick before KU, to this. "Overall, he's converting just 39% of his 2-point attempts, which would be the lowest percentage of any player drafted in the last ten years, if he indeed decided to enter. Combine that with his paltry 37 free throw attempts in 22 games, and it's no surprise why Selby ranks as the least efficient scorer amongst players in our top-100 prospects ranking."

How is it possible to do that to a #1 McDonald's?
Wally was the #1 recruit?

Selby wasn't overrated, it's just that Self held him back in hopes that he would stay another year. Basically red shirting him.

Josh Selby's Athleticism – When Selby was trying to decide whether or not to leave Kansas after his disappointing freshman season, the school did everything they could to keep him for one more season. Apparently, that included convincing others that Selby wasn't nearly as athletic as people thought. School officials had been telling people that Selby wasn't a great athlete and the general consensus was that Kansas did it to lower his draft stock so that he would come back for his sophomore season.However, that didn't stop Selby from doing everything in his power to prove his athleticism in Las Vegas. He is one of the fastest guards in this class and possibly the best dunker. On Thursday, Selby had everyone in attendance circled around one basket as he put on a dunk show. He threw down a 360 between the legs dunk and afterwards told me, "That was my first time ever trying that." Selby is a phenomenal athlete and I wouldn't be surprised if he won a dunk contest at some point during his career.
