Here's Blythe Nacht, the Black Fox (actually red fox, silver phase) created by none other than Kyell Gold! (  kyell )

A top notch scorer and shooter who needs to diversify his game, Blythe is working on his physique and learning to do a few more things on the offensive and defensive ends.

Also, apologies that this jersey looks so similar to Kenny Henderson's UNLV jersey. Real life college have some pretty boring, uncreative color schemes/logos/jersey designs, to be honest.

I think I earned a little bit of basketball playing time after this one! Still not even halfway done with FBA prospects though. WTF Mate?! X,x *drops dead*

Player Report:

Projected: TOP 24

Blythe Nacht is a top notch scorer and shooter with one of the quickest releases in the Draft. The swift black fox broke the three-point accuracy record for his conference this year, and came within 20 points of breaking the scoring record. He makes an appearance on the Top 10 list in scoring and 3-point accuracy for this year's draft class, tying for 3rd in the latter category.

So why isn't Blythe ranked higher on this list? Probably because he's a very one-dimensional player whose main strength is shooting 3-pointers. He tends to stay somewhat stagnant on offense, hanging by the 3-point line until a pass comes his way. Though he is quite good at sinking the trey, especially from the corner, which he says is his "sweet spot".

Blythe is a volume scorer, but lacks much of any contribution in any other category. He's not a masterful ball-handler, he hardly ever looks for the open man, and you won't see him going into the paint to snatch rebounds very often. He also really needs to work on his defense. He's one step away from being a turnstile on the perimeter, and that is not something coaches like. His effort has been questioned on that end before, but he does swear that he has been working on that part of his game, and the improvements are slight, but they're there.

The biggest improvement he made over the course of the last season is adding fifteen pounds of muscle to his delicate frame, giving him a bit more leverage against other players. He has been known to take the ball inside on occasion, as his 20 points a game don't come from just 3 pointers. When he drives inside, he has a sort of rubbery effect, like he will jump in the air and contort his body in all sorts of ways, then sink the shot. He's also like rubber in that he's pretty durable, despite being thin as a noodle. He bends and twists, but never breaks, which is nice when many others his size tend to be quite injury prone.

Blythe could stand to utilize his driving ability more often, as there is quite a bit of potential in the way he can get inside, but old habits die hard, and his habit of waiting by the arc for a shot to come to him is something he will have to overcome. He needs to be more aggressive on both ends of the court. He tends to do best when challenged, and his intensity and focus falters when he's not involved in the play.

All in all, Blythe is a solid scorer and terrific shooter with even more potential to diversify his offensive repertoire. It's just everything else that makes up the game of basketball that he needs to improve on.
